The Beacon

Swiftcurrent Lake reflects Grinnell Point in the rarely calm waters as the first rays of the day strike the peak, Glacier National Park. I was amazed that the surrounding clouds never lit up with color, as I had hoped. In hind site, I really liked how the mountain was separated from the background as if lit by a spotlight. The light quickly faded and everything began to look grey and dull. A German photrographer and I were the only 2 at the lake, and rejoiced in the unusual lighting together in our respective languages. Somehow, we knew what each other were saying! ISO 100, f16, 3.2 sec exposure, daylight white balanced. 2 stop Grad ND filter, hard edge.
Exif: F Number: 16, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 32/10 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 17.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark II

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed.
