Landscape: Yosemite National Park, etc.: Moonrise over yosemite vally
Moonrise over yosemite vally, January 2006
About an hour after sunset, when the moon was rising over the east end of the park. At the same time, a mist hovered over the valley floor that captured the headlights from autos on the roads leading into and out of the valley. The "spray" of light is a result of auto headlights shining on the puddles of water and reflecting upward through the mist.
Surreal.
This was about a 7 minute exposure, with a Canon 5D at f/2.8 w/ a 24-70 Canon "L" Zoom lens at 24mm, 200 ISO.
