Goosenecks Statepark
A dramatic landscape in spectacular light, isn't that what we landscape photographers are yearning for when we go out or planning a trip? It does not always happen, in fact, a lot of times one or more ingredients are missing and we have to make due with what we are presented with.
But sometimes a little patience will pay off. We arrived at Goosenecks Statepark about two hours before sunset and it didn't look good. Heavy rain clouds had obscured the sun, and the landscape, while spectacular in form and shape, looked gray and drab.
We were not the only ones there, visitors kept coming, taking selfies in all imaginable ways and leaving looking somewhat disappointed. But I noticed that the clouds were moving away and a gap was opening up on the horizon. And sure enough, the sun started to peek out from under the clouds and spread its magic while we watched the storm recede into the distance.
