Out of Darkness

Avalanche Lily (Erythronium montanum), Mt. Rainier National Park, Washington state 

One of many beautiful flowers I encountered whilst trekking about in Mt. Rainier National Park. This little flower happened to be just beside the main trail in some beautiful lighting, and I waited a minute or so until the lighting was optimal, and fired off a few shots. Here is one of them

Avalanche Lilies are, as their name suggests, primarily found in highland areas, and occasionally at the edge of snowfields. The lily is native to the coastal areas of British Colombia, and can be quite common in the right kind of habitat.
