A Pastel Dusk
I had packed up once again, ready to head back out of the mountains. I had gotten the composition I wanted, but on the way back the sky lit up as it sometimes does after sundown. Just the right amount of haze, light and refraction. I had to tell my friend to pull over on a blind curve, pulled off into a ditch and I ran to the side of the road to grab a shot. traffic flying by behind me mesmerized by what they were seeing, thankfully in the lane furthest from me. I tried a few compositions in this scene, limited though they were. I finally settled on the wide angle, get the mountain lightly illuminated, a tree silhouetted against the sky. Clouds giving one of their best shows of the year.... Yes, Landscape photographers often claim June and July are terrible for landscape photography, I disagree, the scene is what you make it, what you show your viewers, work with the light.
ISO: 160
Aperture: f8
SS: 1 second
Focal: 28mm
Its easy to loose yourself within a scene, trying to get a shot... but always make sure you watch your surroundings when you're standing on the side of the road, or anywhere.
