Going Home
« on: April 12, 2010, 09:48:32 am »

I've been volunteering at the California Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve the last couple months--I'm about poppied and wildflowered out for now. A few shots on my way home, and as far as I can tell, not a flower among them.
 
The light was moving fast.

I think I'm going to spice up the brush in the foreground a bit when I get around to doing a reedit.
 
This was across the road.

 
I've ended up in this location for sunset several times on the way home.  It's a great place for catching clouds as they come over the mountains.

I think what I need to do is spend a day on this bajada and line up something I really like. It's an interesting place though, even if I never find a shot.
 
The Plant Community says Goodnight!

.. and then I'm on my way home...

I like the light on the first shot, and the rich colours in the third shot. It looks like a very interesting expanse -- nicely captured!

I really like the second one! What does it look like when you bring the blacks out a little more? I have an image in my head of a solid silhouette!
