The raw power and beauty of the mighty Sierra rising up in front of the vast expanse of the desert needs no other title. The fireworks of this January sunset lit up the entire sky and the brilliance of the last rays of sunlight exploding from behind the mountains adds to the life of this scene. Shot on Kodak Ektachrome E100 film.
