Evening Passage

Liquid Light A quiet high alpine evening, where the only movement was deer passing through.

Exhale The day, the week, the season, the sky exhales.

Parallel Light Two phenomena, same sky, same moment. A storm pushing east while the light fought back. Look closely along the rainbow, a second line, white and faint, rising parallel. A sun pillar, light reflected off suspended ice crystals, caught alongside the rainbow almost by chance.

Overcast Lies Overcast all day. One hole in the sky disagreed.

Distracted Even the wild ones lose focus sometimes.

Burning Layers A hot, ordinary day dissolved into this. Compressed layers of storm and light colliding above the mountains. One of those moments where you just point and shoot and feel grateful.

The Paddle Home A brutal, sweltering day was finally breaking. The light went gold, and everyone pointed for home, a slow paddle at a time.

Fetch Me a Sunset Everyone else was winding down. Ellie was just getting started. 🌅 Carter Lake didn't stand a chance.

Secondhand Sky A cold front rolled in, trading scorching heat for something cooler, but it came at a price. The wind carried smoke from the PNW fires down to us, hazing out the mountains and bending the sunset into colors that aren't quite normal. No filter on the camera, just the whole sky turned into one, the light strained through a few hundred miles of someone else's fire. Beautiful and a little uneasy at the same time. We had a guest for it too: a dog we're sitting, watching the lake and mountains like he'd never seen anything like it.
