It's all about patience

I was up on Mount Rainier last night at Sunrise. Just when I thought sunset was done, it lit up and I got this....

A little patience and be willing to hike back in the dark

Edited to add shooting info:

16-35 at 16mm, f13, 6 sec, 3 stop GND

Holy cow, that's amazing! What a wonderful shot!

Trying to figure out where you took that one. Looks like it migh be Gobbler's Knob, but if so, that would be rather long hike back in the dark, or you know a different route...

HDR done the old fashioned way, a 3 stop GND

I forgot to include shooting data.

16-35 at 16mm, f13, 6 secs, and the 3 stop GND.

Wrong side Bob, this was on the slope below Sunrise. I think it was only about a half mile hike, but the family of bears behind me made it interesting

I just want to keep coming back to this. Beautiful.

I saw that great pink sky from here last night while out on my run (no camera with me on runs, bangs around too much).

Spectacular job catching it !! And a good example of taking the time to wait to see the light, don't leave until it's completely dark..... oh, and not to worry about the bears, there has never been an attack inside MRNP (hopeuflly you didn't roll in huckleberries or smoked salmon).

Outstanding!
