Dawn over Calico Hills, Nevada
September 4, 2009
This is a shot I made a couple of years ago, that I recently brought back up from my archives and did some additional cleanup editing. It was shot about 45 minutes before sunrise, with the early light just starting to hit the hills, and the moon setting overhead. It’s both a stitch of two shots to create the panorama and an HDR image, as I double processed the RAW images to bring the exposure on the sky way down – in the end I had to comp in the moon because the original was too blown out. One of my favorite landscape shots, so I thought I’d share it.
