Found some unexpectedly clear-ish skies with some auroral glow and venus rising last Tuesday morning. Shot with D800e + 20 f/1.8. Location: Mendenhall Lake, Juneau, Alaska.
Here's an intermediate stage in this photo's life: I shot with Nikon D800e and 180/2.8 ED AIS for one camera and Canon 1Ds3 with 100L IS macro and 100-400L IS for the other variations. All versions looked good, but each was unique in its rendering. For the moment, it looks like this Nikon image is being chosen by the client.
This is the current version rendered by the printer's PP team (offset litho image to be around 16x20 for calendar). This not a "final", but shows photo retouching to remove logos from planes and boosted magenta in lower sky. May be lightened overall later to compensate for dot gain. Looking good so far.

Post the final printed result - an iPhone pic will do.

Okay. It should get printed and distributed later in October or early November. It's quite a large year-at-a-glance style wall calendar for the L.A. chapters of IBEW and NECA (the electrical workers union and the electrical contractors association). This will be my 26th year providing the calendar images highlighting their electrical work -- my longest running client.
