It's That First Time in Nature That It Hooks You! (Denali National Park & Preserve)
What I’d call a medium wide angle view (50mm) and image captured looking to the southeast from a side porch viewing area in the North Face Lodge area while staying a few days in Denali National Park & Preserve. My thinking with this image was to angle my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward, capturing more of a sweeping view across the autumn colors that were starting to come out across the tundra in this part of the national park. I would have a little bit of blue skies above but wanted to minimize that as I felt it was more of a negative space. I was though able to capture the full breath of the mountain peaks to my front with Mount Brooks on the image left leading all the way to Denali on the image right. I did 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 that I’d recently purchased after moving away from Capture NX2.
