Colorful sunrise in Protland, OR

This is a single exposure image, taken from Pittock Mansion in Portland, Oregon. Downtown Portland is seen in the shot, as well as Mt Hood to the east. The image was taken about 30 minutes before the actual sunrise.

Wow, that's a wall hanger for sure!! I've always wanted to do this shot... maybe I will get up to Pittock one of these days!

Can you share your exposure conditions?

Very nice.

Thanks, Scrumhalf! Yes, the focal length was 94mm (using a 70-200mm f/4 lens), exposure time 37 seconds, aperture f/9, ISO 50, and I also used a 3-stop Lee GND filter to hold back the bright sky and the sun in the horizon.
I hope this helps.

Beautiful image as I scrolled from side to side to view it on my monitor. Just in case you are not aware here are the rules regarding image size when posting.

Thanks for pointing this out. However, it sounds like the policy needs an update and you possibly need a new monitor.
IMHO, the era of 15 and 17-inch monitors is behind us, and most of the folks (especially in photography) have 20+ inch monitors and no issues with viewing 1600-px images. But, just to comply with the policy as it is now, I will have your note in mind when posting in the future. I appreciate it...

REALLY NICE SHOT!!

Understood but to be clear I have viewed this on my 20" and 17" monitors and still have to scroll. Not being nasty but it really is difficult to take in the full beauty of a shot such as this if you can't see it entirely. In any case posting in a size that meets the sites requirements does NOT take away from the shot.

You also state 15" and 17" monitors are behind us. Please explain laptop, notebook and iPad users needs. Going with your theory the only way for those of us that on occasion and for specific reasons use those devices to view shots is by spending extra money on something that takes up extra room and serves only your desire to post oversized photo's. This is of course is MHO.
