went up to Tipsoo Lake, near Mt Rainier, this past weekend to catch the sunrise. i got there the evening before to do some recon and find the best vantage point. after the sun went down, i flopped the car seat back and snoozed for about 3 hours, then got up to shoot some star shots, then napped again for another hour or so and got up again at 5:00 for coffee and a sandwich before heading over to the lake. i got set up about a quarter to 6:00, and at 6:05, right on schedule, the sun touched the top of the mountain. i got this shot about 5 minutes later... the mountain was in full alpenglow, but the sun hadn't yet come over the ridge behind me to light up the area around the lake... Canon 5D, Tammy 24-135 @ 89mm, 1/2 sec @ f/13...
Print it frame it and sell it for big bucks. You got it spot on.

Very nice, you got some good color on that one...
Thats a stunning photo. BRILLIANT!
Beautiful, worth all the effort.
Great light and good work spending the time needed to get the shot you wanted. Glad I have a truck with an air mattress for spending nights out like that.
