The Citadel

Citadel Mountain. Canon R5, 40mm, handheld, 1/1600 @ f11, ISO 1600

This was one of my favorite moments in Glacier National Park back this past fall. While driving up Going to the Sun Road, the light breaking through the storm clouds onto Citadel Mountain was stunning. Fortunately there was a pullout right near with some colorful underbrush to use in the image. I shot this a couple of ways but preferred this option which kept the sky slightly overexposed which led to the drama of the sky and overall scene. As per a few requests, I hope to get some of these Glacier National Park images up on my website by Thanksgiving so they are available to be ordered as prints for the upcoming holiday season.
