I need to dig through my archived hard drives for the DSLR shots of monument valley, but here's a behind the scenes shot of a timelapse I was taking from my room in the View Hotel for Father's Day 2016.
It's tough to isolate a small section of the forest to make it look less chaotic. Did you get any close up shots of the freezing rain on the branches? I honestly wouldn't have known there was freezing rain on the picture if you didn't mention it. If you didn't get any closeup shots, I would...
Jim, if you approach Joshua Tree from the South Entrance off I-10, and drive north to the Cottonwood Campground, you will pass fields of the lupine right off the road. You can't miss it. Have a safe drive, and I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures of the lupine!
There is so much to see and do around Kanab, and the Wave is just a tiny morsel of what's there. Have you been to White Pocket Kyle? I went there on the same trip, and it was amazing. So many compositions in 1 small area. I'll post some pics of that area and a write up later in the week.
I should mention when I was out there during the govt shutdown, the BLM office was closed, so no rangers checking permits. A few people hiked the Wave without a permit thinking it was going to be fine, but turns out local law enforcement sheriff was out checking permits and citing people...
Thanks for the suggestion Jim, that's so funny you mention that tiny lupine poking out, because after i exported it to lightroom, i noticed the same thing, but i was headed to work, and didn't get a chance to re-edit :)
I do agree a 16:9 pano puts more focus on the lupine and will re-edit to...
Thanks for sharing your lottery experience Kyle! Seems like in person lottery is the way to go. The online lottery you can sign up once a month for a date 4 months in advance for $5 (and you don't get it back if you lose). Before you select the date, there is the dates of the month and how...
I was chasing wildflowers over the weekend from Anza-Borrego. A lot of roads had water on them, and I did not have 4 wheel drive to explore offroad, so I left Anza and headed to Joshua Tree. The wildflowers are currently popping around the south entrance. I got there in the afternoon, and...
I enjoyed this shot, unique shot that one doesn't normally see, can you talk about your wave lottery experience? I took a week off in January hoping to be there each day for the in person lottery, but the govt shut down, and the BLM office was closed. I tried online for many months, but no luck...
