Location
The Monument in Grand Junction Colorado!Time
We were visiting my mom and she told us of this beautiful mountain that she wanted to take us on some new adventure like we always do when we visit. So as we were driving I saw this tiny little turn out, and I looked over and saw this beautiful view, and I yelled stop! Slamming on the breaks my mom what!? What happened?! I said I need to take this picture haha so we all got out and were lucky enough to be apart of this! This picture was taken mid afternoonLighting
The lighting that day was just breathtaking!Equipment
I used my phone camera actually!Inspiration
The breathtaking view way up high where you can see the horizon is my favorite to shoot! Being able to see so far into the beauty of this world!Editing
I did brighten up the colors just a bit because with how bright and beautiful it was that day the original had some glare to it.In my camera bag
Me myself and my phone lolFeedback
Take your time and yell at your drive to stop just at the perfect angles and you will get pictures like this lol and it's pretty satisfying yelling Stop! And then being able to take a picture you might have not had the chance if you didn't get their attention because they didn't stop fast enough.
