A Beautiful Night on Mount Whitney | [ Sizes: Orig | Large | Med | Small | Thumb ] |
Taken December 8, 2011 at Upper Boyscout Lake on the way to Mount Whitney. A 60 second shutter speed was used to capture this, the moon light made this photograph possible. Comments[ Post a Comment ] | gimpilator | There's No Question | | 
Voted 10/10 | This is the best photograph from our entire trip. I can see the movement of the stars. That's my headlamp in there! | | Posted Dec 30, 2011 10:43 am |

Hasn't voted | Thanks Mark. I saw the tent lit up and had a moment to spare, so I figured I would try and get a photo of the tent at night for good memories. | | Posted Jan 15, 2012 9:36 pm |

| Matt Lemke | Your best photo... | | 
Hasn't voted | Josh, you made a giant leap in your photo skills with this photo. This is by far your best photo. I really can't wait to do Whitney now! Moonlight nights are really fantastic aren't they... | | Posted Dec 31, 2011 12:52 pm |
| | Josh Lewis | Re: Your best photo... | |
Hasn't voted | Matt, I've had most of my night photography skills for about 3 years. But in this case I was in the right place at the right time and could finally use what I know to capture this. Anyways, very much appreciate your comment. Whitney was a lot of fun, you should have a good time when you go. | | Posted Jan 15, 2012 9:30 pm |

Hasn't voted | Thanks for the idea, I do like making my own custom cards instead of buying one that someone else made. | | Posted Jan 15, 2012 9:38 pm |

| cdcscrambler | BEAUTIFUL | | 
Voted 10/10 | love this photo, i am gonna try one like it this year | | Posted Feb 10, 2012 10:37 pm |
| | Josh Lewis | Re: BEAUTIFUL | |
Hasn't voted | I admit that when seeing many of these kinds of photographs I figured it was about time I would try it myself. I certainly recommend trying a photograph like this, keep in mind you need to use a long shutter speed to make it turn out like this. | | Posted Feb 11, 2012 10:47 pm |
| wheelerpeak20 | wish i was there | | Hasn't voted | not much snow for december it seems
was it cold? | | Posted Jul 25, 2012 4:28 am |
| | Josh Lewis | Re: wish i was there | |
Hasn't voted | I was surprised myself about this. But yes it was quite cold. My camera kept dying on me which I would have to warm it up every picture I took. | | Posted Aug 2, 2012 1:52 am |
| mrchad9 | Well done! | | 
Voted 10/10 | Great work on this photo... much tougher than a simple point and shoots effort. Looks fantastic!

| | Josh Lewis | Re: Well done! | |
Hasn't voted | Thanks Mr. Chad. I also use my camera case or a pile of rocks as my tripod. In the future I hope to bring my tripod with me to make it easier to position. But certainly not as easy as pointing and shooting. | | Posted Dec 13, 2012 11:58 am |
