Ghostly Mountain

From the meadows at its base, El Capitan rises into the heavens, a ghostly presence veiled in the morning mist. This scene captures the mountain in an otherworldly light, the fog weaving its magic, casting a diffuse glow that’s captured straight out of camera–no blur or Orton added here.

Opting for black and white, I’ve allowed the play of shadow and light to take center stage, turning the sky into a dark canvas that throws the luminous grandeur of El Cap into stark, breathtaking relief. No need for added effects when nature crafts its own spectacle, a monochrome marvel that reminds us of the timeless dance between earth and sky.
