Calm Before the Storm
We saw the weather forecast the day before predicting that a thunderstorm would be rolling into this area, so we took our chances and drove the four hours east from Seattle hoping to catch an awesome sunrise at Palouse Falls. We were rewarded with these amazing pink storm clouds that started rolling in as the sun rose from the horizon. About an hour later it started raining heavily with thunder and lightning.
Palouse Falls was one of the first place I visited when I started to seriously photograph landscapes about 5 years ago, and perhaps it is fitting that I come full circle and return here for another attempt at creating a worthy image. I hope you enjoy the image as much as I enjoyed being there watching that sunrise unfold and photographing and editing this scene.
