Nisqually River Flows Through a Glacial Valley (Mount Rainier National Park)

            This was on the bridge crossing over the river and valley, looking to the southwest. Here I decided to zoom in downstream to the grove of trees and mountainsides off in the distance. Even with the mostly cloudy skies that early afternoon, there were patches of blue skies here and there that allowed some of the sunlight to come through. That's what I wanted to capture with that grove of trees and bring it out even more later in post-production with Capture NX2.
