Pink Mountain's Majesty!

(actually Superstition Mountains in Mesa, AZ)
After a day of failed storm chasing, Jay Beckman and I had given up and were driving away. The sun then popped through the clouds and generated this!
6 image stitch with 1Dx and 70-200 mk2 at ISO640
I bumped the contrast and repaired some stitching errors but the color is real!

FANTASTIC shot!

Beautiful shot. It has everything: soft red light, a rainbow, scale, and leading lines. Jealousy!

Keep up the good work.

Great capture.

Yip,

Your title says it all.... ok, not all since I'm going to type a few more words. I love the colors you see out West. I grew up out there but now live in Florida. We get amazing sunrises and sets here but nothing to frame them like the mountains, etc. out West.

I have come back a few times now to view your photograph. That is a high compliment from me.

Great shot. Nice light.

Thanks everyone for the kind words!

awesome. great work

Nice! Goes to show that being at the right place at the right time pays off

I forgot to mention we had chased storms for close to 400 miles without a single lightning strike captured! The carrot was being dangled in front of us the whole day! It's only when we gave up we got the reward!

That's about as good as it gets.....

Beautiful pinks and blues. I could see this as a wall-print to tie a whole room together. I can feel how magical this experience must have been.

u never know what mother nature has waiting for u u just have to be available.

Very nice! I love that place...

Wow! The storm chasing really paid off, not without a lot of effort on your part. I spent a lot of time in the Superstitions years ago and really miss AZ.
