37° 49 56.78" N
122° 28' 37.23" W

Equipment: EF-1 70-210 lens. Kodachrome 25 (in all probability).

Digital imaging/manipulation: Image scanned with Minolta Dimage Scan Multi PRO at 4800 dpi.  Emulsion artifact removed.

Notes: 

This was taken seven months after the eruption of Mt. St. Helen's Volcano. I was told that increased particulate matter in the sky accounted for a brilliant red at sunset if you were shooting to the west. Shots of the city taken from the west (like this) had a much more saturated lavender sky as well.
