From the road

It seems I do my best landscape work when I'm driving at 55+mph


I got this shot from the top of Foothills (top of the hill before hitting Valmont Road) at 55 mph a couple days a go. My D300 was riding shotgun and I saw this, picked it up, snapped it into dumbass focus mode and fired a few shots off.

Also, on the same day after reaching my destination, I found this
waiting for me as I got out of my car. I'm not quite sure what it is, but I put the D300 into VIVID+CONTRAST Picture Control and wow, the colors really pop!

Even though I recently got a phone that can take pictures, I might have to keep my real camera riding shotgun more often.

My next post will probably be shots from my morning shoot today at the Scott Carpenter Skate Park.
