Monolit

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted June 15, 20178,204 views4 comments

I was fortunate to get constantly changing light as the clouds rolled overhead, and I waited to get an image where the valley was mostly in shade except for the one monolith. D600, 24-70 f2.8 @ 58 and f11, iso 200, 1/80, cpl, gnd (hh), tripod. Suggestions and other comments welcome.

I like the light in this one more than in the previous ones. And I don't see the crispiness that bothered me in the first of the previous images. The composition works very well with the light, too. I guess that M&N because of the road? I would have no problem with this one being in landscape, but that's just me.. cool

Yes, Alberto, M&N because of the road (although I agree with you that this should be really in landscape).

Scott: Good things come to those who wait. I love conditions like this and how one can make an image that will never be duplicated. Wonderful capture of the moment.>=))>

Scott, This looks really nice! The combination of light and shadow just works great and the scene is beautiful.
No problem in Landscape with me as well because that is what it is.
