The Majestic by ftan99

for more: http://ift.tt/1pj8rRx Something different from my usual shot. Its different because this was not taken during the sunrise/sunset/golden hour/blue hour time frame. This was actually taken mid morning. As I have mentioned in my previous posts, during my stay at Mt Rainier, the fog was very intense that we hardly glimpse the peak. In this one, the fog does contribute something to the final photo. Also this is a 4 x 5 crop which I feel fits better with the subject matter. via 500px http://ift.tt/1rhOiLl

Dark Energy by alexnoriega

This is one of a few images I'm pretty stoked about from backpacking around the Northwest this summer: Mount Rainier during a stormy sunset, rising high above passing thunderheads. I shot this with my girlfriend Erin last month. For educational purposes and in the interest of full disclosure, here are the exposures that were needed: one for the sky, one for the land, and two for the lightning strikes (which were necessary as separate exposures at f/4, because the strikes weren't showing up in my base f/16 exposures with all the other light in the scene). If you would like to learn how I achieve the look of my images, you're in luck! I teach my processing workflow and techniques online.
