p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Croton Gorge Dam


Woke up very early in October to catch the sunrise at the Croton Gorge Dam. It was epic. The sounds were mesmerizing. The mist was absolutely incredible. I didn't think I could get a good shot, though. Just before the sun peaked out I got a break and I snapped away. This is my first submission here and I hope to continue to do so.

The Croton Gorge Dam, in Cortlandt, NY built in 1842

This was taken with a Tokina 116 2.8

Very nice! I don't think you could've timed this any better.

Looking at this on Google Maps... You took this from Croton Dam Road? Were you standing on the road/bridge? I've never been up that way before, but it looks like a great location.

Nice job! I think I took a similar shot there back in 2010, but it was the middle of the day in the summer, so I didn't have the nice light and mist that you caught here.

Wow! So much going on in that shot! I really like the tonal range, but its not unrealistic at all, which is a big plus. Very cool!

Another checkmark in the WOW! column, Steady.
This is a delightful image- in all respects.
If it were mine, I'd clone out that #!&%#! jet entrail in the pink cloud. I hate vapor trails as much as I hate human footprints in sand dunes!

Hi Charlie,

I did contemplate taking it out. I rarely clone out in my images and plan to master that in the next year.

Thank you and thank everyone for the great feedback.

Thank you treebeard. Intense is a good word to describe the dam on a foggy morning.
