Winter Sunset at Beards Hollow, Cape Disappointment State Park, Washington, 2019

When the opportunity for a potential beautiful sunset image coincides with my days off from work, I do my best to make it out to the coast. On this January day, all the weather forecast models promised a colorful sunset in the area of Cape Disappointment State Park (located along the southwest tip of Washington State near Illwaco).

It was nearly high tide as I drove my Jeep down the beach, and after crossing several small streams, I drove as far south as I could go until I reached Beards Hollow. I had the entire beach to myself nearly an hour before sunset.

As the sun was setting, it beautifully illuminated the clouds from below as well as the the incoming waters of the high tide. With such stark contrast, the trees and cliffs of North Head were silhouetted against the sunset skies. Indeed, it was a very beautiful and peaceful winter night at the beach.
