With our recent trip to the Sierra, I’ve been thinking of revisiting some photos that I’ve taken previously. One that comes to mind is a panorama of Lone Pine Peak and Mt. Whitney (the ‘Whitney Crest’) from the Alabama Hills that I took last fall. I shot this shortly after sunrise, and after shooting Mobius (Galen’s) Arch in the predawn light. As one person noted, this is one of my favorite views. Indeed.
Click on the photo to enjoy this image big. It would, of course, look better hanging over your couch!
Whitney Crest at dawn, October 2009
Photographic notes: It is a panoramic image created from 5 horizontal frames. I processed the RAW images twice, once for the highlights, and once for shadows, and blended the two resulting panos using luminosity masks.
That’s a pretty one too, not quite as unusual as your Mono Lake photographs, but this one is certainly a quality image in my opinion.
