Technical Storyteller
Next up in my weekly zoom-background revisits is this sunset scene from Moab. It’s not very far out of town, but pretty much everything in the area is scenic. This is an HDR to capture the wide range and mood of the moment.
At times where we’re all feeling a bit trapped, remembering that the wide world is still out there waiting gives us something to look forward to!
The Utah desert may appear barren, but if you look closer you’ll see that life finds a way, sometimes clinging to the walls of a canyon. I was hiking back to the truck at the end of a shoot, and happened across this scene on the side of canyon. The sun was setting and light fading, so I only had time for a quick hand-held shot (and dinner was waiting too!), yet it captures the magic of the southwest.
For the Friday photo this week, we head back to Moab, then south to the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. The workshop my Dad and I were on took us to the Dugout Ranch, where we met Heidi – every bit the archetypal western rancher. She was kind enough to let us shoot around her ranch – this is just one of a really cool series of images of this iconic area.
