Arizona Christmas Escape-10
Twilight over Sedona originally horribly overexposed brought back from the brink by some new tools I have learnt doing some Lumenzia course work the past few weeks.
Sedona s a treasure and in tune with its surroundings and strictly enforced, all the town lighting is set up with special shielding to avoid light pollution into the skies.
We were truly amazed at the sheer number of houses that were in a location that you just couldn’t see due to sympathetic placement well designed landscaping and contour design building.
I am sure that even the paint color schemes are carefully regulated here, I know the local McDonald’s has to use green arches instead of yellow!
This picture was taken from the viewing platform at the Sky Ranch Lodge our hotel directly beside the airport sunset viewing platform.
The Sky Ranch is a homely old school hotel with a shuttle into anywhere downtown and pickup service friendly staff and an excellent grill located just across the street but the best part is the private sunset platform belonging to the hotel, unfortunately it started to pour not long after I set up my tripod……. :(
I took this with my D750 and Tamron SP 24-70mm 2.8 G2 Lens at 70mm 4s, f/13 ISO 100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia
Disclaimer: My style is a study of romantic realism as well as a work in progress.
