Dawn at Artist Point, Yellowstone Canyon -- Yellowstone National Park


Photo taken by Mike Umscheide. He said of the photo
This was one of many memorable photographic moments during my Fall of 2006 trip to Yellowstone National Park. Artist Point is a famous photography spot at Yellowstone, and I was hoping for wonderful soft light just prior to sunrise. I was more than pleased with what I got, which was a few high cirrus clouds lit up in a vivid, saturated pink color to complement the extraordinary landscape of the Yellowstone canyon and Lower Falls of the Yellowstone River. Date: September 19, 2006. Exposure was f/9 at 1/5 seconds, ISO 200, shot with the Nikon D70 at a 24mm focal length.
