JTNP Sunrise
Well, not too original with any sort of name here. But, this was a reworked image from last season from about this same time frame out at JTNP. I needed to make up a print of this last week and I just now got time to post it here at CANP. I've actually been making a few trips out to JTNP in recent weeks and have captured a few images overall. I was there again yesterday morning and just by chance met Steve Sieren at the base of Ryan Mountain. I knew he was to be out there this entire week, but needless to say it's still a big park with only a small chance of seeing someone you might know.

Thank you in advance for any C&C.

A good composition that is enhanced by lovely light. The sky color
nicely complements the image.

Hey Steve, it was really good to see you again out in the field and spend some time talking. Not sure how my stuff is as of yet, you know, it's the film thing. Anyway, hope you came away with some good keepers from the trip. Take care!.... :wavey:

Paul,

I remember this one. I like this version much better. There still appears to be a bit of a cyan cast, especially in the sky adjacent to the central rock formation. This is a nicely composed scene.

Nice capture and an excellent rendition of the variation one would expect to see in JT. I would second Preston's cyan comment. Other than that, this looks very nice to me.

Thanks everyone. I've made a change to the cyan issue, let me know your thoughts.
