Oh, Beautiful Mountains, How You Stretch On Forever and Ever (Denali State Park)
Oh, Beautiful Mountains, How You Stretch On Forever and Ever
The reflections you cast on waters can only add to the wonder
as you rise so high above
So as I open my eyes in wide eyed amazement,
I will shed a tear
But not because I am sad.
No, because I am so wonderfully happy.
The tear just have to come out in gratitude.
Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one morning in Denali State Park while walking the Byers Lake Trail. With this image I pulled back on the focal length, going with a more ultra-wide angle view with my Nikkor lens. This was a view looking to the northeast across the lake with its reflections to mountain peaks beyond.
With the sunlight and the haze from the recent forest fires mixing together that morning, I knew I wouldn't be able to capture much beyond a more minimalist look, even working with the shutter speed. I was able to do some initial post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation while playing around as I learned how to work with DxO PhotoLab 3.
