GC at Sunrise 3

Grand Canyon at Sunrise, from camp at South Bass Canyon, seven years ago, 3/15/2011.

Two more from pre-dawn/sunrise. The prominence in the center is Holy Grail Temple. Not the best photos, but they do capture the feeling of early morning darkness and light.

 The sunlight sneaks into the day.

GC at Sunrise 1

Grand Canyon at pre-dawn, from camp South Bass Canyon, seven years ago, 3/15/2011. (one month early, I didn't set the date right on the first try)

I didn't think there would be enough light, by my camera held the shutter open about a half-second, getting some good shots that could be tuned to be interesting. I really ought to read the manual and figure out how to do these things on purpose.

Warm Day at Sunset

Warm day, evening sun, old dog too.

After all those snow and ice photos, it's nice to warm up a little.

Sidewalk Ice Two

More photos of the sidewalk on a winter morning.

Fragile, paper thin, a tiny ice shelf catching the morning sun.

Sidewalk Ice One

Sidewalk Ice

A frozen fantasy, walked past, stepped on, gone with the warming sun.

More Snow Shadows

More Snow Shadows

Made using the bracketed photos feature in the Camera FV-5 Lite App, combined to HDR by Google Photos.

Compare to the frame with the highest F-stop (or whatever) here.

I like the grey-tones, but the sense of intense brightness of sunlight on snow seems to get lost.

Here is another from this set after some tinkering and stylizing. Better, I think!
