Palouse in the Rain
Palouse in the Rain
A steady rain greeted us the evening that we arrived on the Palouse. When I made this image, the camera was all wet, save for the front element (which I took great pains to keep dry because a wet front = the end of the clicking 😉 ).
Thanks so much to Ryan McGinty, who took time from his weekend to guide and shoot with us.

I’m accustomed to seeing Palouse pictures done in early morning or evening light so this pictures is beautifully original.

Thanks, Frank. We were shooting during the evening but this time of year, the sunlight would still have been pretty harsh were it not for the rain. We lucked out.

Thank you, Karen! I still think it was worth getting wet for.
