Snow covered pine trees, mountains and pink sunrise clouds in Vail, Colorado

Gore Range Sunrise | Vail, Colorado
The sunrise above the Gore Range Mountains in Colorado can be absolutely spectacular. However, in order for it to be seen one must be at high altitude early in the morning. A great location for that is the top of Vail Ski area. It rises up to 11,570 ft (3,527 m), which affords a breathtaking panoramic view of the Gore Range. Nevertheless, the vertical altitude from the base of Vail to the top of the ski runs can be as much as 3,450 ft (1,052 m). Yes, taking the lifts is an option, but the problem is that they do not open until well after the sunrise has come and gone.

Therefore, whenever I want to photograph the sunrise above the Gore Range I hike up with my skis. Given that it takes me at least 3 hours to crest the top I normally have to get up at 2am and be on the slope by 2:30am. It is so hard to get up while it is dark and cold in the middle of a winter night. However, it is necessary if I want to be in the right place at the right time and capture the sunrise. On the other hand, once I am on top the hard effort is rewarded by witnessing a beautiful scene like this one. The effort is absolutely worth it.

When I captured this sunrise with the view of the Gore Range, it was my very first time I had done this. I didn’t know how long it would take me to get to the top. I was not sure exactly where I would position myself, in order to get a good view. Those situations in fine art nature photography always create a bit of anxiety for me, because I am racing against time. If I get there too late and the peak colors of the sunrise have passed, the entire opportunity is missed. Regardless, on this winter morning I was blessed by reaching enough altitude and having a view of the Gore Range, right before sunrise.

FINE ART PRINTS FOR SALE

Print Mediums

Acrylic - TruLife® LumaChrome Prints - ready to hang

This is the absolute highest luxury, museum quality product in fine art printmaking on the market today. Acrylic prints boast a tremendous range of vivid and bright colors, incredible sharpness and clarity, and an anti-reflective acrylic surface. Put together, these qualities result in an almost 3D looking showpiece, which immediately captivates and impresses the viewer. TruLife® acrylic prints are a fully finished wall art product, ready to be hung on your wall.

Lumachrome acrylic fine art prints reflect light with amazing luminescence due to the Iridium metal particles used in the print inks. Because of this, these museum quality prints appear as if they are lit from behind. In addition, the colors are amazingly vibrant and well saturated, while the dark areas maintain great detail. Furthermore, I use the anti-reflection, scratch resistant, and UV protective TruLife® acrylic as a standard on my limited edition prints.

Metal - ChromaLuxe Prints - ready to hang

Metal prints are a paperless fine art photographic product. The inks are directly infused and sealed onto an aluminum sheet, in order to produce this gallery quality, luxury artwork. ChromaLuxe metal prints result in a stunning, high-gloss fine art image, with bright and saturated colors. Metal prints have incredible image quality, archival properties, and physical durability.

Research has shown that ChromaLuxe metal prints will outlast, by three times, silver-halide photographic paper prints. Besides, metal prints are a remarkable high definition product, delivering high quality at a slightly lower price, compared to acrylic prints.
