First Light at Chasm Lake - Rocky Mountain National Park by Brian Kerls Photography

TITLE: "First Light at Chasm Lake"

Located on the east side of Rocky Mountain National Park, Chasm Lake fills a deep cirque carved from the base of Mt. Meeker (13,911'), Longs Peak (14,259' and the highest point in the park), and Mt. Lady Washington (13,281'). The famous east-facing wall of Longs Peak known as "the diamond" rises 2,456' above this calm alpine lake which sits at 11,760'. Starting two hours before daybreak I made my way up the 4.2 miles to the lake mostly in the dark and arrived a little before sunrise and just in time to capture this image of the early morning summer light casting an orange glow on the peaks and surface of the water.

PRINT OPTIONS:

- Lustre Paper Prints: Professional, high-quality, fine art lustre prints produced on acid-free papers using archival inks so that they last a lifetime without fading or loss of color. All lustre paper prints include a 1" white border around the image to allow for future framing and matting, if desired.

The aluminum sheet is offset from the wall by a 3/4" thick wooden frame which is attached to the back. The high gloss of the aluminum sheet complements the rich colors of any image to produce stunning results.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:

Exploring with camera in hand, Brian seeks to capture striking and intriguing elements of the natural or man-made landscape. Using light, moment, composition, and color to create emotionally powerful scenes, he hopes to develop a deep connection with the viewer that allows them to feel as if they were experiencing these picturesque, and often remote, places in person. Brian hope the photographs you see here convey at least a small sense of the majesty and wonder of these unique and special locations and that you enjoy viewing these images as much as he did creating them.
