Location
This shot is on Monument Valley, AZTime
This was later in the day. I found it interesting that this single dead tree was now a center piece along the dirt road leading through Monument Valley. I thought, what a metaphor! All alone and yet still standing to let the world know that there is a history here.Lighting
Just normal spring time daylight.Equipment
Canon EOS T2i with a 50 mm lens if I remember correctly. Of course I would need to go back and verify with the meta data.Inspiration
This was just such a neat composition of nature, or should I say the harshness of nature.Editing
Not really. It pretty much is presented as shot. No cropping either. Handheld shot.In my camera bag
Lots, too much to mention. Many varieties of lenses, filters (which I rarely use), extra batteries, intervalometers that I use for time lapse video and of course, lots of cleaning cloths.Feedback
Yes! Keep you eye out for fun and metaphoric METAPHORIC compositions. And just shoot! There is no excuse in today's world to not activate a shutter.
