Morning at Turret Arch

Uploaded: September 30, 2010 23:35:50

Description

resubmit 2/17/11, landscape. We got up at 5AM to reach this arch before sunrise (Arches NP). Fortunately, we met a photographer whom I hastily asked for the best view of the arch as he ran by. He motioned, so we followed through the North Window arch and a rock scramble to a ledge where this view is found. The Turret Arch is seen through the back side of the North Window, just as the sun rays hit.

Exif: F Number: 18, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/6 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 200, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 18.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II
