Fire Above the Cordillera Negra
Uploaded: August 05, 2009 15:49:54
A tarn near our Laguna Collicocha tent site provided the perfect reflecting pool as the sun sank below the Cordillera Negra in Peru's Cordillera Blanca. I had originally hoped to photograph alpenglow above the Santa Cruz massif to the east, but cloud cover obscured the peaks. I raced back toward the west where compositions were found to compliment the lighting conditions. 3 stop grad. NG filter, hard edge was used to balance the brightness of the scene.
Exif: F Number: 16, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 4/10 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 32.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
