Welcome to the Anthropocene

Future generations will probably look back on the Petroleum Age with a certain amount of disbelief: "They burned it? All those lovely organic molecules, and they just burned it?" (Ken Deffeyes, oil geologist)

 

Landscapes with a long tele lens it's not my comfort zone. Keeping an heavy 300mm steady under strong wind it's not an easy job, even with a solid tripod and a trigger releaser. Under the circumstances, however, it was the best solution I found for an uninteresting foreground that made my wide angle useless.
