Very cool! What were your settings on the camera for this?
Thank you. Both images were taken in a focus stack to ensure pinpoint focus. The first one (the sunrise at Cathedral Rock) was f/8, ISO 64, for 1/5 of a second. The second one (the Seven Sacred Pools) was f/8, ISO 64, for 1/125 of a second.

Nice light, but your images are too large.
Sorry about that, unfortunately it's difficult to find the right balance for sizes given the number of different size monitors and such.
I love your composition, and I love the light. There are both striking.
I would have not chosen the process your first image as you did. what bothers me is the brightness of the rocks around where the sun is coming out. its as if they are front lit and not back lit. there has to be a very bright light source shining on them from the front. I am all for pulling up the shadows in the foreground to reveal more detail, which I think you have done very well, except in the first image around the sun.
