Look close

This was taken around 22:45 as i was pulling into Canmore, Alberta looking west. The light in the sky is residue from sunset which had occured around 21:30 It was still quite light at 22:15.
When you watch the sun hesitantly set over several hours and then watch the source of the light move further and further into the northern sky, you really get a awesome sense our place in our solar system.

I hadn't slept enough the night before because the sunrise wakes you up around 5:30. You would think a 10-hour drive from Yellowstone through Montana and into Canmore would be exhausting...but no. As each day of this trip passes I feel more and more awake and alive. It's as if I'm merging into the beingness of the universe and every little moment I experience becomes more and more full of life.
