The Monolith

Having been to Tombstone three times now, I had a much better idea of where I wanted to spend my time and the things I wanted to photograph - things that I had missed in past trips. Going through older images, it became clear that I’d only ever taken one photo of Mount Monolith, and I was determined to address that on this trip. The first night near this mountain, I decided to go for it.

 

These were somewhat familiar rapids for me, but I always struggle to find a good spot to park my tripod considering parts of the stream are a bit deep. Eventually I decided that the best spot for the tripod was the deepest part of the water, and nearly out of reach from the closest rocks. With a little bit of contortion, balance, nearly going for a swim, and of course some luck, I came back with this image.

 

Thanks for peeking, and loads more to come!
