Utah Slot

[Dustin Gent]

Haven't really been out shooting much lately, even though I "upgraded" a ton of my gear.
This was taken in March on trip with some buddies. This slot I am unsure why I waited all this time to visit, but it is not the easiest to maneuver in. Rope is needed to down climb. Lots of water this year in southern Utah, which is frigid.

This was taken with my new Leica 35-70 f/4 ROM lens + Sony A7r3. Shot at 35mm. Using a normal focal length in areas where wide is usually "necessary" actually really makes for some great comps!

Very nice, Dustin. I've found that creating intimate images in slots is quite rewarding.

I am with Jeffrey on this one - I love the small scenes in the slots. Nice job with the range of light and colors here.

Hey Dustin, it's great to see you getting out and it's really great to have you share this photo here!

While it sounds like that slot was a bit of a pain, it also looks like it was worth it. Good work on this one.

 

[Johnny Mendoza]

Very nice indeed, very rich colors.

 

[Jim Dockery]

Very nice, and the difficult access likely meant you had it to yourself, which is priceless.

 

[Douglas Sherman]

This is excellent, Dustin.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Great work, it almost looks like that wall is a floor.

 

[Dustin Gent]

Thanks everyone!

The intimates in slots are always a treat & you got very nice Rayleigh scatterings. Good job, Dustin!

I miss the canyons, thanks for the lovely visit. Well done.
