After finishing up in Banff National Park, rather than driving 12 hours straight back to my home in Montana, I decided to camp in Glacier National Park. I’ll be posting more from both Banff and Glacier in the coming weeks. I’ve enjoyed October in Glacier before and often found myself the only person camping. Not this year as the campgrounds were full despite so much being closed for the season. So I opted to just stay one night. But I was treated to a pretty stunning sunset and then the next morning to a great sunrise as well. The light at Wild Goose Island Overlook teased for a while before the sky went totally gray. With sunsets though, always wait until 10 or 15 minutes after the sunset time. I did and the sky lit back up beautifully. The cloud in the middle right of the sky looked like a giant bird flying above the lake and was part of the reason I chose this composition.
