Long nighttime exposure, with star trails, of Mt. Rainier from Reflection Lakes
I’m impressed with the color and how blue the sky looks. Well, it is sunlight after all, it’s just getting to the scene via a large reflector in the sky. The moon would have been pretty full here. The challenge with these shots is to get enough light on the trees on the other side of the lake without blowing out the top of the mountain. I do like the reflected star trails in the water.
This image was made in 2008. Cascade Fall is just outside of Yosemite Valley. You can see it from Highway 140 as you are driving in to the valley. To make the image I used 2 Bronica SQA cameras with 50mm lenses (wide angle). The cameras were 4 inches apart on a tripod. I can’t remember the exact exposure time, but it was around 10 seconds.
