A long exposure, 5 minute, photograph of Shiprock taken at astronomical dawn as a set of whispy clouds flow over the formation. The light source for this photograph was the light of the full moon. Note: A one stop GND filter was applied to the below the horizon portion of this photograph to achieve the desired light balance above and below the horizon.
Second Pink
Early morning reflective light illumates The Second Wave formation in the Coyote Buttes North permit area. The sequence of events that formed this formation through geologic time would take an entire book to explain (or so I've been told). NOTE: No major edits made to this photograph in post.
