Afternoon light on a snowy Mount Shasta.
The first 24 hour of sunlight in anno Domini 2022 were gorgeous. A colorful sunrise was followed by a day of bright sunshine. The ensuing sunset was beautiful, if sparsely clouded. This was naturally followed by a second sunrise, this time far more colorful. The sky was filled with high clouds and the pink light seemed to bounce from cloud to landmark and then diffuse into the air, causing the air to quietly glow. It was magical. All in all, not a bad way to start the year off.
OK, 36 hours into 2022 there was a sunset bonus:
It was extremely windy and quite difficult to get a shot of the mountain without the camera being buffeted by the wind. I finally had to take shelter behind my jeep and shoot from that point of safety. The wind no doubt played a roll in manifesting the lenticular. The year feels like it is off to a great start!
