Wow! Terrific shot. Amazing light. cheers, frank ================== Thanks, frank! The light was amazing. The rocks light up at sunrise and sunset, really reflect the sun light. I also spent some time getting it. When I visited before I didn't exposure lock on El Captian and it blew out too much. This time I waited an hour first day, perfect, but no clouds. There were clouds the second day, so ran back and waited an hour again. It goes through a transition of glowing to pink to red. This version I have lightened shadows more. If I were to play with it even more, I would only lighten the lower shadows and leave those on El Captian darker (although the tree edges are hard to get, so that might be tough). I also should have called it Handsome in Red, as I tend to think of El Captian as male. Heh. Marnie :-) --------------------------------------------- We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.
