Hand held while freezing! Same setting, place and etc as the last post. After this one, we split. It took us 2 1/2 hours for a typical 1 1/4 hour drive back to the house. It actually got almost too dangerous by the time we did get home.
Interesting and different composition of one of your favorite subjects. I would agree that the rock and building intersection is problematic of this otherwise well-thought-out comp. The opposing diagonals of the rocks (FG) and slope (middle ground) work well. Also the more detailed FG rocks add depth to the image.
Hey Grady,
Pretty sure only way to get rid of merge.........is ladder........not sure a good idea in cold like that. I like the tones you have captured........I may have to get up there in Feb......and join you in the freezing.
The rocks hide the people, or parked cars that people park close, because they cant or wont walk like ordinary people. There is also an older building where they store the bicycle rack out side and chain link fencing that would be ugly in the frame. In short, it is hiding the ugly hand of man. A ladder might be inviting a broken leg. Ice forms because the wind blows water spray right there at the base of the rocks. But I appreciate the comments and suggestions.
