Sunrise at the Grand Canyon - a photo on Flickriver

Sunrise at the Grand Canyon

            We got up 90 minutes before sunrise and got dressed in multiple layers of clothes (thermals, insulated boots, the whole bit.) Strapped on LED headlamps and carried our gear out to the car. We drove to the parking lot at Yavapai Point and then hiked in. It was so incredibly cold and dark and we had never been there before.

When we found the spot, I set up the camera in a landscape configuration as there wasn't yet enough light to do a panorama. I started taking photos of first light.

A little while later, I went to switch the camera to a vertical panorama position when I realized that I forgot my nodal slide and L bracket. Jess was so cool about it, she drove back to the hotel to retrieve the gear for me. I felt so bad that she could potentially miss this amazing sunrise. She fortunately made it back before any of the good stuff started.

I've already processed the panorama that accompanies this landscape shot, but I'm saving it for another day.
