"I must have had some kind of precognition into the future because I don't normally keep my camera in the trunk of my car, but after trying to photograph the fog yesterday I decided to leave my camera in the trunk just in case. Sure enough, that time happened to occur on Wednesday.\r\n\r\nWillie and I arrived at our favorite San Jose spot just as Lukas Wenger and his wife pulled up. Jave arrived shortly after and we set off to find the cracks. I decided I wanted to setup near some still water that I had found, knowing that I could shoot east or west from here and still include both cracks and reflection in the water. Turns out the sky in the east did nothing but man\u00E2&#128;\u00A6 the sky in the west!!!\r\n\r\nWilson Ng and Matt Levine showed up just as the sunset started to get good. There weren't any of those high, thin, textured clouds that we photographers normally like. Instead, the entire sky just LIT up. Lit up is probably the wrong term -- it EXPLODED with color! Rain started to fall in the west and the rain clouds started turning yellow, orange, and pink! We stood there hooting and hollering at how beautiful the sky looked. Man was that a beautiful night!\r\n\r\nSafety Warning: For anyone who wants to find this spot, I offer you a warning: Despite knowing the safety issues here, I pulled a Willie tonight. Our first time here Willie got stuck in the mud and had to be rescued by another friend. Knowing this, I am normally very careful and test each step before I put any weight down. At one point during this sunset I started walking around trying to find other compositions. As I walked around this little pond of water I started to see the entire pond just GLOW with beautiful red and orange colors; I wanted to get closer. I was so excited that I started to run. I took about 2 steps and realized I was stuck \u00E2&#128;\u00A6 knee deep in the thick, gross mud. I was able to get myself out but it could have easily been much worse for me. If you find this place, be extremely careful that you do NOT get stuck! Seriously -- even when I knew about, I still got stuck! Cleaning up the mud was not fun, took a long time, and smells horrible!\r\n\r\nNikon D800 w/Nikkor 17-35mm f/2.8 ED-IF AF-S:\r\n17mm, f/18, 3 sec, ISO 80\r\nLee Filter Holder + HiTech 0.6 ND Grad"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
