Mount Rainier National Park Ep.4 | Inspiration Point | Timelapse Video
Inspiration Point is a spot fertile with photographic potential. There are gorgeous views of Tahoma aka Mt. Rainier, the western peaks of the Tatoosh Range, the Nisqually Valley, and the night sky. And, hanging around to do a timelapse of a lenticular cloud circling Mt. Rainier can be very awe-inspiring. One evening I came to Inspiration Point in hopes of catching some pretty sunset colors but the sky got thicker and thicker with clouds. Meanwhile, a lennie just happened to be dancing atop the mountain, so I went over to set up a timelapse. Some blue sky was still visible but by the time I was all set to start the TL, any hint of blue sky had been snuffed out by the drama of incoming clouds. After the TL I did manage to get a subdued sunset shot with a sliver of pink peeking through the clouds on the horizon. Inspiration Point did not disappoint on this evening nor on return visits – it lives up to its name, whether it be pre-dawn alpenglow, blue hour or just any ol’ delightful conditions of atmospherics and light!
