So, todays clouds were perfect, an epic sunset was going to swing through the mountains, shine light and shadows all over the ridges after some light rain. I was excited. I drive, and drive through the mountains over the Blue Ridge Parkway looking for a new place to shoot, and I happen upon these lumbering boulders on the side of the road. Occupied. Couldn't get in, but I had plenty of time before sunset. I drive down the road, sun is on the wrong side the the mountains with no overlooks.... I turn back and the place I had seen was empty, I climb up a boulder get setup, set my exposures, get a few test shots in to find my composition.... Fog rolls in. I did managed to salvage this shot before the fog reduced visibility to nothing, so I hope I did the scene some justice.

ISO: 160
Aperture: f8
SS: 1-60
Focal: 16mm

Used the Haida m10 CPL here, though it wasn't dialed in before the fog rolled over and cut the scene.
