And that's when I learned that my trip to Glacier National Park had just become much more complicated.Ī voice mail informed me that our first flight of three had been cancelled. My next clue - She said "It's 12:30 AM!?" That's when I realized that I had an actual call - the alarm had not gone off. I said "How much time do you want to get ready?" (I thought I was giving her the amount of time she requested the evening before). After several attempts over a few minutes, she rolled over and in a somewhat unfriendly tone, said "WHAT?". I shut it off and tried to wake my wife (the family was joining me on this trip). One was on my phone which was on the nightstand beside the other. Actually, I set two of alarms for insurance. For me, it started with an early bedtime and a 2:30 AM alarm setting. Getting to Glacier National Park is a modest challenge for much of the world - it is at best two flights away from most of the us - and three for many of us. When all comes together, the rewards are worth every ounce of effort required to get the shot. There may be many opportunities yet to come with easier to handle dynamic ranges. When you are shooting the next sunset, don't leave when the sun sets below the horizon (most photographers I observed in Acadia do). A custom white balance and a small amount of saturation were the primary post-processing tweaks aside from compositing the 3 images. To keep the long exposure sharp, mirror lockup and the two-second self-timer were used as was a Gitzo GT3530LS tripod with an Arca Swiss Z1 Ballhead mounted to it. The three layers were merged in photoshop. These three shots were selected from a huge number I shot at various times during the sunset - with lots of bracketing taking place. A third shot was used to capture the light shining on the trees beside and behind the lighthouse. A 20 second primary shot includes the water and sky while a second 30 second shot was used to pull detail out of the rocks on shore. This image is a composite of three shots. There are a lifetime of photo opportunities in Acadia National Park, but the Bass Harbor Lighthouse is one of the best and most-visited locations. Getting there early enough to see the sunrise was the only requirement I found this mid-August weekend day as there were only a couple of other friendly photographers joining me.īass Harbor Lighthouse, Acadia National Park, Maine It was recommended to me that I arrive very early to beat the crowd - to get a prime shooting location before sunrise. This location is an easy, short walk from a small parking lot. This picture was taken just as the rising sun lit up the mountain tops. Schwabacher Landing is without a doubt one of my favorite places in Grand Teton National Park.
