Glowing Orange Clouds At Sunrise
Crater Lake National Park, Oregon, USA
Canon EOS 1D X; 70-200 2.8 IS II (at 130mm); 1/1500, 1/750, 1/350, 1/180, & 1/90 sec; f13; ISO 100

There was almost too much cloud cover yesterday morning in Crater Lake National Park. There was a mostly-solid cloud layer to the east as I drove to my favorite overlook to check conditions, and I drove through a layer of clouds as I ascended the crater rim. I sat and waited, and the clouds over Crater Lake parted just enough to create a fantastic glow shortly after sunrise. I combined the five exposures for this image by hand in Photoshop because Photoshop didn't create a smooth image during the Merge to HDR Pro stage of the Lightroom HDR technique.
