Experience is one thing you can't get for nothing…

On my past visits to Trona Pinnacles, my primary focus was on capturing the mesmerizing beauty of the night sky. However, on my recent trip, I made a conscious decision to dedicate more time to exploring the Pinnacles themselves. To my astonishment, I discovered this location is home to some breathtaking viewpoints. Instead of taking my usual close-up shots of the towering pinnacles, I opted for a wider-angle view. As luck would have it, I stumbled upon the perfect spot just as the sun set, casting a spellbinding light on the landscape. The dry grass in the foreground took on a magnificent golden hue, which added to the overall beauty of the scene. I used a 120mm focal length and set my camera in portrait orientation to take a series of shots I later stitched into a panorama. During the editing process, I decided to crop the image tighter to eliminate some distracting rock formations on the left and keep the main subject in focus, which I think helped with the overall message of the image.
