Fire On The Mountain
In the late summer and Fall of 2006, we drove across Canada from Victoria to Halifax and back,(Pacific coast to Atlantic coast round trip) taking almost 3 months to explore as much as possible of our homeland.On November 9, 2006, after driving through fog and snow from Calgary,Alberta, it was great to wake up to the morning sun shining on the Canadian Rocky Mountains around Canmore,Alberta. The start of a great day! Sony DSCF828 camera.

Good shot, George.
Love the contrast between the sunlit mountain top and the shaded lower portion. Yet, you maintained detail in both.
George Cousins replied
It actually turned out better than I expected at the time.The sunshine on the snow was very hard to look at so I thought levels would be all over the place even though the histogram looked good. Nice surprise when they were OK.Gotta have faith..lol.
Stephen Vecchi...

beautiful sun light on the tops of the mountains
George Cousins replied
Thank you. The day before was foggy and snow, and couldn’t see the mountains. So nice to wake up to a beautiful clear day and see the sun.

Many thanks Wayne, glad you liked it. And you’re right about the time and place, a few minutes before or after would have made a big difference.!
