Pacific Northwest Sunset Friday January 13th, 2012

Tonight Pacific Northwest residents were treated by one spectacular sunset. Perhaps this is the most fantastic sunset I have ever seen in my lifetime. Each of the major television stations and newspapers featured submissions from area observers fortunate enough to have had cameras and cellphones with cameras with them today.

I took multiple images with my cellphone and stitched them together for a panorama to share.

“My favorite Northwest boating destination is the San Juan Islands, because somehow I am drawn, impelled, pulled by some unknown force located there – perhaps a fantasy almost realized but yet, not quite. I try to shake it, even neglecting these islands for years, but alas, when I’m back, and I always seem to come back, the islands continue to exude their charm, their beauty.” – J. R. Hudson
