SUNSETS and SUNRISES!!!

Another from the other morning - just as the sun began to break over the distant mountain peak...

Sometimes sunset involves looking the opposite way.


sunset near the rio puerco 06Mar10


The peak at frame right in the distance is Sierra Lucero. The distant ridges at frame left are probably the most southern portions of the Manzano Mountains.

Nice one Dean, did you think maybe to lift thee shadows ever so slightly to lend a little more emphasis to the silhouette? I think it would look really nice with the way the blues are here, if the whites were a little more yellow complimenting it.. Looks like images I love to play with, which is why I tend to shoot about 300 images of sunrise and sunset :D
 
Thanks! Yes, I did. I usually play around with all the edits before finally deciding on which I like best. I don't remember now, but the hue looks like it may have been a preset that I tweaked a little for my taste. I made sure we had room in the luggage for the tripod, but did not use it even once. My loss, right?

Usually, the foreground of an image shot from this location looks like a bunch of nothing. For whatever reason, in this image there is the impression of an industrialized urban environment. The reality is far from it.

Even the wife could not resist getting her hands cold as the sunrise broke the horizon;

I never do selective edits to be honest, usually find them somewhat tacky, but I thought as the highlights on this shot we're so clearly blown, I'd put the focus on the iPhone shot..
