John Harrison Photography > 11/8/09.  "Sunset on Half Dome from Glacier Point" Some nice color in the summer sky with clouds above Clouds Rest and Nevada and Vernal Falls. It was uncertain if we were going to get a good sunset as high clouds hid the sun from penetrating through. These last glimpses were at dusk as the sky started to light up. This is one of those places I want to be on a Friday afternoon!
John Harrison Photography > 11/12 Galen's Arch at Alabama Hills in the Eastern Sierra.  We were shooting at sunrise packed all around the Mobius Arch otherwise known as Galen's Arch for the Galen Rowell who made it famous.  I was excited to have met John Shaw who was quietly shooting there with us.  Just another fantastic place to be.
John Harrison Photography > 11/13 - "Heart over Horsetail Falls"  Yosemite National Park.  Sunset Spring 2009.  I captured this during another outing to capture Horsetail Falls.   The water flow over the falls was pretty low this winter.  As I was shooting I noticed the winds picking up.  Some gusts picked up the trickle of the falls and it puffed up like a cloud - the sun shining on the mist and I froze this moment.   This year was almost non-existent for capturing any good Horsetail Falls pictures since it was cloudy and snowing much of February this year - I guess that is what makes this such a hard picture to take since the window for good images is only a few weeks.    For more information on Horsetail falls and my award winning "Nature's Firefalls" image see this.  http://www.jharrisonphoto.com/gallery/2747559_ghkMc/1/281579766_t4hmN/Medium
John Harrison Photography > 11/16 - The Great Wall.  Badaling Section.  For my visit to Beijing, I had a fantastic guide who managed to get me access to the Great Wall BEFORE it opened to the public!   He asked me why I wanted to leave so early?!   Now he knows why!  This is one of the most visited and popular sections of the wall to visit and I am glad I was able to enjoy it with NO ONE THERE!  This is the way a treasure like this is supposed to be enjoyed!
John Harrison Photography > 11/17.  Aspen Leaves Fall Down by The Creek.  I found this group of fall leaves down on the rocks in the creek bed.  The water rushing by and the fall colors made this just a perfect place to hang out.  They had to pull me away or I would have been here for hours!  0768  This can be seen in my Fall Colors gallery here:  http://www.jharrisonphoto.com/Landscapes/Eastern-Sierra-Fall-Colors/10149163_Y2dvm
John Harrison Photography > 12/2.  Royal National Park in Australia at Sunset.  I captured this during my fantastic business trip to Australia where I managed to get out to take a few pictures as well.  This was one of my FAVORITE locations!   One of my friends, Matt, who lives in Sydney took me out there.   It rained on us, was hot and sunny and then the sunset was just fantastic!  I couldn't have asked for anything more.  I was definitely having a little TOO much fun as I kept shooting past sun down... and the tide kept coming UP!!  We made it back around cove without any problems!  I just finished processing this today for my first time -- let me know what you think.
John Harrison Photography > 12/4  "Rock Layers to the Sky"  Royal National Park, 1 hour South of Sydney near Bundeena.  This was earlier in the afternoon at the coast at the Royal National Park.  Just God's playground of rock textures, shapes and patterns. Add a rich blue and cloudy sky, mix in an ultra-wide angle lens that I love to use and you have a rockin' combination!
John Harrison Photography > Fall Colors on the Merced River in Yosemite.  I was shooting with retired Yosemite Park Ranger Mike Osbourne during an Ansel Adams workshop along the Merced river.  We stumbled across these vibrant Fall colors reflecting in the Merced.  Just a pleasing set of greens, yellows and Oranges with a Monet look on the water.   I could have just sat there all day.  9836  Other waterscapes and Rock Abstracts can be seen here:   http://www.jharrisonphoto.com/gallery/10541366_zxiN7#732132685_dTmwP
John Harrison Photography > 12/7 - Sydney Skyline at Night.  I captured this a few months ago and just reprocessed this.  I love night skylines especially when you get the water reflections of the color of the lights.  I did one crop without the lamp post and buildings to the right of it, but it wasn't as interesting imho - I like the path that takes you walking along together with the subtle wrought iron fence.   For the technical details -- This is about 10 images shot vertically with my Nikon f/2.8 28-70 (love that lens!).  10s at f/16.  Stitched together in Photoshop CS4.  Post in LR and PS.  The amount of detail in the image is stunning when you look at the high res!

It was uncertain if we were going to get a good sunset as high clouds hid the sun from penetrating through. These last glimpses were at dusk as the sky started to light up.
