Road To Yakima

Posted by Slackwater - Don (Spokane, United States) on 1 March 2012 in Landscape & Rural.

On a drive to Yakima, Washington, highway 97 goes along the Yakima River and valley farmland before climbing over a pass. I shot this drive-by shot because I liked the herd of cattle and the clouds hanging on the hills.

Pretty capture of smooth old snow dusted mountains with the splash of surprising red bushes in there to make it all pop.

The low clouds are amazing. The way that you can see through them provides an almost 3D effect.
