p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Half Dome Glowing


Just got some transparencies back from been Imacon scanned. Here's 'A Beautiful Glow'.

This was the most amazing sunset I've ever seen...the shot of the avalanche (https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/1277051/0#12169696) happened a few minutes after this picture. The intensity of the orange glow on Half Dome was unlike anything I've ever seen.

Technical: Hasselblad Xpan2 90mm lens Fuji Velvia50.

Well balanced exposure. The color contrasts are excellent. Good amount of detail in the rock faces that are in shadow. I like it.

Hey Mark,

The one nice thing when there is no clouds in Yosemite is that you can count on Half Dome then putting on a show like this. All that's left is to decide where to shoot it from. You got some nice color here on Half Dome, though when it's red is more my personal favorite than orange. But this glow is a very cool intense orange.

Nice work.

Jim

Mark,

Great colors on glow. I love sunset on Half Dome and like Jim said, it's just a matter of where you want to shoot it. This is a great angle.

Thanks guys! It was pretty mega to witness, seeing as I was there for about two hours with light going in & out - clouds on the other side of the valley. Then for five minutes we got this show to ourselves, just myself & my wife (everybody went to shoot Horsetail). Again the clouds rolled in behind us & scuppered any chance of red/pink light hitting the dome....instead I got the avalanche!
I've seen HD go pink in September with the light creeping up until it disappears over the top, so it was nice to see it go so orange & the full sheer rock face too!
