Colorful Shenandoah

Dawn at Shenandoah National Park
Shenandoah National Park is best known for its spectacular mountain landscape. The ever-changing mountain landscape is attribute primarily to the changes of light throughout the day. The golden hour (before and after sunrise/sunset) is one of the best times to photograph the mountain landscape. Typically, dawn casts a cooler (blue) light and dusk casts a warm (red) light. The cool or warm light spread across the mountain is beautiful and the scene look fantastic.

Sometimes, the light might be very different and complex due to the weather and atmospheric condition, e.g. cloud, fog, mist, and haze. Therefore, it might be warm at dawn and cool at dusk. These elements not only contribute to the changes of light and color, but also give a wonderfully moody feel to your picture. Moreover, the mixture of warm and cool light may occurred thanks to the interplay between the sunlight and cloud.

Shenandoah National Park is an amazing place! This is the place with full of breathtaking beauty and wonderful landscape! I would love to return here to capture the light in different seasons.
