Setting Sun on Timpanogos

In Utah Valley, the setting sun can create some of the most spectacular visual effects imaginable. This is not a false color image created by Photoshop. This is approximately what the light looked like on this special evening when the sun was streaming across the valley and lighting up the wall of mountains on the east side, including Mount Timpanogos, the subject of this photograph. The view to the west was equally spectacular but the light on the mountain was extraordinary.
