A mighty fine sunrise and a wonderful way to start your day. Looking forward to seeing more from your trip - especially if there are more like this.

The old Jeffrey magic at work here. The sky has perfect luminosity and so does the general foreground while the dominant cactus has just enough additional luminosity and glow to make them glow. I don’t think this as much about you knowing the technique (although that is extremely important) but that you know when to stop

Awesome Jeffrey! World class as usual.

I think I have a tendency to brighten the ground too much, but I like how the light on the ground seems totally appropriate for the color in the sky.

Thank you Ben. You are spot on with that last comment. I have a few philosophies that have helped me through business, art, and life:

Embrace the concept of adequacy.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

It's more important to know what not to do, than to know what to do.

Beautifully done!

That's some major miles on those bones...looking forward to seeing more of your magic.
