Arctic winter sunset

Saturday in Duploworld:

After a good day with a loong walk, a splendid lunch with a good friend and the realisation that temperatures close to -20F is not really that bad.

I grabbed my camera, a termo with hot coffee and set out to one of my favourite snowfields.

My back against the wind, a sip of hot coffe and watching this amazing display travelling towards the horizon:
Arctic Winter Sunset


Great way to spend a saturday evening; just me, a snowfield and the setting sun:)

I stood out a little more in real life. so what totalled to I think a 6 stop ND grad along with a little curve work did the trick.
