Parkway Sunset

Got this off the Blueridge parkway last month. The way the sun is peeking behind the clouds looks otherwordly.

Jim,

I can't believe this beautiful image has not had a comment yet. I think this is fabulous, the colors are great and layers of ridges seem to go on forever. A really great shot, thanks for sharing.

This is one gorgeous shot for sure. Love the layers of mountains and the general sense of mystique that it creates. :) :)

Stunning view! The layering effect is fantastic and the colors are great. Does the focal length of lens used contribute to the "layering" effect?

[Jim_Hasapis]

I used a 300mm with a 1.4x teleconverter, plus graduated neutral density filters. The longer the lens' focal length, the more compression you get.

Surreal. Very nice photo. I wish I could take shots like that!
