\"Bryce<\/a><\/p>\n

I have a well earned reputation, I love greeting the sun each day! Ya, this means getting up early but the rewards out weigh the pain (and afternoon naps feel so good!). On our recent visit to Bryce, we greeted the sun each day and while some days were not as spectacular as others, just listening to the world come to life as the birds sing and the deer stroll, makes each and everyone one a celebration for the soul. And those mornings when we did see the sun, it didn’t disappoint!<\/p>\n

Shooting is really rather simple. Armed with the D750<\/a> \/ 14-24AFS<\/a> and closing the lens down to f\/22, all one had to do was look and click. The first thing you might be asking is, “what about exposure?” Well, I’m “pinching” the sun to increase the starburst at the same time, minimizing its brightness lowering the range of light, slightly. So I dial in -1.7, shooting Landscape Tone Curve and then simply finish in ACR. I run my Nik recipe of Pro Contrast & Darken\/Lighten Center and all done. Now that bright spot on the left does pull the mind’s eye there but the texture and beauty of Bryce sucks it back making it a perfect marriage. I know it’s the weekend but greet the sun, it always says hello back in a spectacular way!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
