My recent trip to Mt. Rainier, in Washington State was a never-ending journey of beauty. Every turn brought a new sight more glorious than the last. 

After entering the park on the South side and rolling through turn after turn on the way to Paradise, I made my wish to see some wildlife.

This little beauty came strolling into view after the very next corner, just for me. Right place, right time? Luck? Something more powerful? Does not matter, I am extremely grateful I was blessed with these special moments to watch and photograph this gorgeous creature.

For fifteen minutes this darling walked, stretched, yawned, sat, winked, crooked his or her head, faced me directly, and came within 5 feet, posing just for me.

This image depicts the Red Fox in its most natural state from the many poses I was lucky to capture.
