Las Vegas Twinkles In the Early Morning Sunrise

in #photography7 years ago

The dimming lights of night time Las Vegas Nevada twinkle and glisten in the early morning sunrise in this image I lensed while returning from exploring wilderness around Death Valley to the west.

The sun is peaking out behind the Black Mountains on the horizon as the alpenglow effect lights up the bottom of the clouds above Las Vegas Valley. 

What I particularly like about this image is the way the road in the bottom foreground lays out like a ribbon as it rolls across hills on its way towards the city.


Like most of the cities in North America, there are wild areas to visit within a short distance from the city. This image is from my ongoing project in which I am trying to raise awareness of the 47% of the USA and 90% of Canada that remain unpopulated wilderness.  

Where Eagles Fly - The American Wilderness Expedition is my personal mission to introduce people to these amazing locations that surround us.
