Honorable Mention
Sunset on Mount Adams
Jonathan Elcock, United States
Sunset on Mount Adams
DESCRIPTION
At the end of a long day exploring fall foliage on Mount Adams, I noticed that a previously empty sky had developed clouds at a prime altitude for some sunset color. Thankfully, the White Mountains have no shortage of scenic views, so I pulled off the highway and found this vantage point as the glowing clouds wrapped around Mount Adams. New Hampshire fall foliage season is an exciting time of year, and I was quite pleased with the opportunity to photograph this quintessential New England landscape under such a stunning sunset.
AUTHOR
I am a physical therapy student who enjoys photography as a serious hobby. It all began in my early teens when I grabbed my mom's Canon Powershot and ran outside to photograph some sun rays that were shooting through a cloud. At first I only photographed cloud formations and sun rays. It wasn't until after I purchased the very first Canon Rebel that I began to explore other types of photography, experimenting mostly with landscapes and macros.

A few years later, after my interest for photography had fallen off, I received the Canon Rebel t3i as a gift. The fire began to burn again and I became obsessed with perfecting every style of photography I could. After a short portrait stint that included a wedding and some senior portraits, a few pet photography gigs, and two years of shooting college lacrosse games, I focused on nature and set my sights on insect macro photography. Once I became tired of focus rails and all the other accessories, I moved on to bird photography, which remains a love of mine today. Ultimately, I came back to where it all started - landscapes.

Photographing landscapes requires one to view the world in a different way. Since beautiful weather and scenery do not always result in beautiful photographs, I've enjoyed learning to appreciate the beauty of everything I see even if there's not a perfect photograph to be found. New England has endless scenery and whenever possible I try to find new areas to explore.
