Evanescent

We camped at 2nd Beach in La Push trying to capture the perfect sunset. The sky was lackluster as the sun sank behind the sea stack, and for a long time after. Behind me, the moon was rising over another sea stack, and it was gorgeous. I took a few shots of it, but for some reason, though, I kept turning back and shooting west. And then, it happened. For the briefest moment, the sky turned purple and orange and pink, showing just enough color for me to pull off a few shots. And just like that, it was gone.
