16th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Awakening

One of the best things about photographing nature is to witness unique moments that most people miss. Sometimes it is ephemeral moments, others are slow and seem eternal. On this occasion I was captivated by the certainty of being one of the few people in the world with the gift of seeing this landscape and decided to try to capture the beauty of the place. I took my camera and made a long exposure to capture the lights of this sunset while enjoying the simplicity of the moment: watch the clouds pass, dye and change shape
