Visiting Steptoe Butte State Park just south of Spokane, Washington is a magical experience. As the sun dipped toward the horizon, dozens of photographers positioned themselves for the show Mother Nature was about to put on. The rolling hills of freshly sprouting wheat fields come alive with the strong sidelight of a setting sun. The lighting conditions changed rapidly as the sun began to set, so taking a large panorama was particularly challenging. A location I am sure to revisit.
An easily accessible but well-hidden gem, Panther creek falls is a magical spiritual location that we were fortunate to have all to ourselves for a couple of hours.
