Radiance - a photo on Flickriver

Radiance

This was taken during the last morning of a trip out to southern Utah with Aaron. We were surprised to see clouds rolling in Escalante the previous evening and hoped more high clouds would move in overnight. After checking the satellite in the early morning hours we decided to make the hour drive over to Bryce for sunrise. Our gamble paid off as the high clouds had just made its way over to Bryce setting the stage for some sunrise colors. This scene was taken at Sunset Point, one of the classical viewpoints in Bryce. It also includes the famous “Thor’s Hammer” on the right

Shortly after our arrival, the beginnings of the burn began. Slowly the colors intensified but at the same time the extreme dynamic range between the sky and the hoodoos was evident. The hoodoos were mostly bathed in darkness with a few areas catching the pre-sunrise glow. As the sky colors intensified the soft light on the hoodoos intensified more casting warm reds and oranges.
