upside down

Fire Wave, Valley of Fire SP, Nevada

the forecast had called for a cloudy day, so we all layered up, yet expectations were turned upside down when the sunshine eventually broke through


big thanks to Sam for carrying along his quartz crystal ball...it is a treat to use, yet surprisingly heavy to hold

Nikon D7000
Nikkor 18-200mm - 1/800s f/13.0 at 28.0mm iso200 full exif

A really cool visual experience. The contrasts of the extreme clarity of the glass sphere and the softer focus of the distant rock formation works beautifully in this capture. Well planned and photographed. Voted+
