I love to photograph the earliest of first light. The world feels quieter and truer before the sun arrives — a better place, somehow, as mountains stir into the day. Often the foreground remains in shadow, but the soft pink and blue glow of earth shadow yielding to daylight is a light I return to again and again. It’s that subtle conversion from night to day that reveals form and atmosphere in the most honest, beautiful way.
