[Part 2 of 2] The last sliver of the visible sun poked over mountains near the Alabama/Georgia border, and a wavy strand of haze still concentrated along the top of the boundary layer. Glare had dimmed enough to reduce the dynamic range and allow the rolling foreground terrain of the southern Appalachians to come out of hard shadow. With a deep zoom into the most colorful, reddened area around the sun, layer after layer of land and sky crossed the view. Those made the scene look like a painting as much as a photo, even to the eye gazing through glass. I just had one job: don’t mess it up (back to Part 1).
