Morning Tranquility ( 碧水映丹霞 )

Sunrise at Bonsai Rock. Lake Tahoe, Nevada.

On my first visit here a few years back, the serenity of the scene captivated me instantly. After I got into photography, I always thought to come back here to capture this the way I first saw it. Unfortunately, conditions never exactly lined up on my numerous return trips. Not to be denied, I made another attempt on one ordinary evening when I saw that calm weather and cloudy sky were forecasted. I drove tirelessly for 5 hours to get here before sunrise. Standing still in cold ankle-deep water, I waited anxiously for the "moment" as I observed the tranquility of my surrounding. As the sun rose, patches of clouds started to illuminate with colors while the lake water mirrored the hues above it. I hold my excitement and triggered my shutter happily, realizing that I have finally captured the shot I had in mind for a long time!

Golden Passage

Raging water of the Virgin River cuts through this narrow canyon, with reflected light providing that ethereal glow on the sandstone cliff wall. The Narrows. Zion National Park, UT.

While I have been to Zion numerous times, this was my first time to hike the Narrows. My friend and I waded in waist deep water for several miles to get here. Along the way, we admired the beauty of canyon sceneries as light moved through from one side of the canyon to the other.
