Sunset River Float

I live where the Wallace and Skykomish rivers merge together and setup last night to photograph what I knew would be an incredible sunset. I setup two cameras: 1 with a very wide angle lens, and 1 with a 700mm lens (just in case something interesting came by). And lo and behold, these two guys enjoying a relaxing float down the Skykomish entered my scene right as the sky was lighting up and reflecting in the water.

Gotta love a good accidental plan that comes together nicely!

Great catch, Jim.
Sometimes it's not about sunset...
