"BEAM ME UP, SCOTTY!"…. "E.T. CALLS HOME FROM VEGAS"…. "SPACE INVADERS!" These are all titles I thought of for this {photograph}, earlier than selecting a extra descriptive title. That is not a New Age, crystals & pyramids, dragons & wizards, graphical piece of paintings 😉 That is an precise {photograph} taken once I was in Las Vegas final weekend to attend a pal’s marriage ceremony. It was taken utilizing the HDR-Tonemapping approach, by using color and luminance information from three separate pictures taken in fast succession. The whimsical appearence of the clouds is attributable to motion of the clouds themselves through the 65-second whole publicity time. I consider the weird depth of the vertical gentle beam is because of residual mud within the air, kicked up by a quick thunder storm which handed by means of simply minutes earlier than; the sunshine is reflecting brightly off the suspended mud particles. One notably cool, albeit refined characteristic of this picture, is the reflection of the clouds on the glass cladding of the resort.
