Perfect conditions the day after Thanksgiving at the Arch.
Lot of company, about 20 other photographers there pre dawn.

Beautiful shot, zoomer! Great light, with good exposure & detail in fore & mid ground areas.

I love the multi-point star effect - I don't get so many with my lenses (canon). Would you mind sharing the juicy details of this one (exif, etc)?

Awesome shot! Congrats!
We missed it last May...

Thanks for taking a look.
Taken with the d200 12-24 Tokina lens.
Matrix metering, iso100, flash whitebalance, f22.
I took some in raw but this one in jpeg came out the best.

I underexposed as much as I dared to keep the glare and flare down.
Very little sun flare from the Tokina on this shot.

Don't ya just love when it all comes together.

That's a spectacular shot. I like the flare. It just peaks under the rock.

Very nice capture!

Oh my goodness - what a shot! I have been trying to decide if I really want to do a photo tour to this part of the world next year (3 plane trips from Sydney), and this image may just have helped me make my decision!
Wow.
