Greenwood Sunset

2.9.20 - I decided to shoot Sunday night’s sunset on a whim, so I headed straight to one of my easy go-to spots as the colors popped. Fortunately the warm tones burned slowly in the sky, meaning I was able to get off a number of shots before the colors faded. I’ve photographed this scene dozens, if not hundreds of times, and it never seems to disappoint. I do always struggle figuring out if I should shoot a single vertical frame, or go for the wider panorama. This night I’d say the panorama worked out fairly well!

4.27.19 - I was trying to clear additional space on a hard drive and I accidentally ended up processing a panorama from the spring, creating a 5GB file. Oops! So much for clearing space... Anyway, this is not fall foliage, but rather the first touches of spring. The sun cresting the horizon is providing the warm hues on the mountaintops. Although the photo looks peaceful, this morning was incredibly windy, even blowing over my heaviest beast of a tripod. I nearly froze on top of the mountain taking this photo. Click for larger.
