New (Inadvertent) Genre of Photography: Paint-By-Brake-Lights

We were in totally dark shooting mode, and someone in the parking lot accidently stepped on her brake pedal. So I made a little lemonade from lemons.

Incipient Dawn: Colorado River Canyons in Ambient Light (just one of the advantages of shooting RAW files)

The RAW file preview looked totally underexposed .. all black. I took this shot about 80 minutes before sunrise, with a mostly clear sky, so I knew that there was a little ambient light from the east. I was correct, and the data was there in the RAW file. A little tweaking in Lightroom, and voila!
