Four people — Dave, Josh, Penelope, and one other — stand together on the bare limestone rock surface of what appears to be Mount Bonnell, the highest point within Austin city limits, overlooking Lake Austin (the Colorado River) at dusk. The group is posed casually with arms around each other, silhouetted against a dramatic sunset sky with layered clouds catching the last golden light on the horizon. The winding river below reflects the fading light, flanked by dense Hill Country cedar and oak vegetation. The photo was taken in June 2009 with a wide-angle Canon EF 16-35mm lens on a Canon 5D Mark II, giving the scene an expansive environmental feel that emphasizes the sweeping panoramic backdrop.
