This is a two minute exposure taken at Meoto Iwa (the "wedded rocks") on the Ise peninsula in Mie Prefecture, Japan. There were a lot of photographers staking a spot to catch a photo of the sun rising between the rocks with the rope. I prefer to do my own thing and took some pre-sunrise shots from this spot (but I still ran over to get a shot of the rising sun, even though I wonder what it would have looked like from this angle).
I had to stand on a pretty precarious ledge to get this one. I had trouble finding the little road up to this trail, so I was a bit late. When starting the trail some other hikers told me that I still had time to get to the top for the sunset. It was mostly uphill and I was almost sprinting. I passed a guy coming down and he told me I was almost there, but once I got to the end I realized that he told me that when I still had about 90% of the trail left! I nearly sprinted onto the ledge, got my camera on the tripod, and took a few shots before the sun was gone.
Autumn in Vermont. This was just after sunset at Blueberry Pond.
