Location
I was driving in north Denver after a light snow. I came across this field that had a 6' cyclone fence and razor wire on the top of it. The only thing that I noticed in the field was this tree all by itself. So I climbed onto the roof of my Jeep and captured this imprisoned lonely tree.Time
This was around 11am, just before lunch.Lighting
It was really a tough to get because the day was overcast and gloomy with really low clouds. I almost didn't take this shot.Equipment
I shot this on my Nikon D7000 at f/8 - 65mm - 1/400sec - ISO 100Inspiration
The fact that this tree was pretty much the only thing in this field, yet surrounded by barbed wire fence.Editing
Not really, That is pretty much how I shot it.In my camera bag
I currently use the Nikon D850. Depending on what I am shooting I may have on my Nikon 24x70mm, Nikon 28x300mm, Nikon 105mm micro, or my new favorite Irix 15mm.Feedback
I do some crazy things to get my shot. I have laid in the middle of the road (with traffic), I have climbed on top of garbage cans, ladders, and for this one I climbed on top of my jeep in a residential neighborhood. Don't be afraid to put yourself out there to get the shot that you want. It is so worth it!! Plus you have a story to tell :)
