[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Another sunrise shot from my extremely productive morning at Zabriskie point within Death Valley National Park in California. This shot features the Zabriskie point icon known as Manly Beacon. In the background the Panamint mountains glow with morning's first light.

PP: Adjusted WB temp to a "cooler" temp. The camera was set to cloudy which was a bit too warm. Adjusted red channels in levels to remove some of the redness from the foreground badlands and the Manly beacon.

Hi Mike

I like this shot. You captured a beautifull light, image is clear and sharp all over. It has a lot of depth and composition is simple and well balanced. Nice work and TFS.
