I set the alarm for 1:30am, hit snooze, and almost decided to stay in bed. I did get out of bed, put the coffee on and was driving by 2:05am. Hiking by 3:05am up the Burrows trail. I regretted not getting up on time – as I missed my favorite light of the day – when the sun isn’t above the horizon yet, and the sky is a series of bands from orange to blue to indigo.
This is a further experiment for practicing my technique for a larger project – multiple camera positions shot from a pano / nodal head. The images are then lightly processed, exported for PTGui stitching, then blended in Lr / Ps
I love that first glint of pink light on the rocks.
