p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Some Color from Valley of Fire


Besides some of the iconic locations and landscapes within Valley of Fire, there are simply unending opportunities for more intimate and arguably more interesting shots to be taken. Here are a few of my favorites from my first visit there in Oct of last year. Comments suggestions always welcome of course!

Hello Mike,

Just beautifully executed images with soft colors. Love them all. #1 is wonderful and #2 has pretty wildflowers between the rocks. I just have one basic question as to choosing your f-numbers here.

Thanks

I often shoot at f14 - f16 for DOF. The f22 was a mistake as I was trying to capture a sunburst just prior to taking that shot!

Nice creativity. #3 does it for me. I like how the vertical/diagonal ridges play with the rock anchoring the composition and the sandstone layers. Well done!

Hey Mike,

#2 is my favorite here, and #1 and 3 are cool, I have shot those rock structures or similar ones as the rock erosion is really interesting.

Mike,
very nice images. I like #1 the most. All are nice, but #1 felt the most balanced to my eye.
Well done!

All super comps but 2 followed by 3 are my favorites. I would frame #2.

All are simply stunning. What strikes me most about these images are the beautiful diagonals at play in each one. You just can't go wrong with a composition when you have those diagonal elements working for you. They are really working in these shots!

You got some nice shots Mike. I was out there for a night back in Nov, and I don't think I really scratched the surface of what that place has to offer!

Very nice, Mike. I really like this sort of intimate scene and you've picked some good ones to work. #2 and #3 are probably my favorites, but I could really get lost in an area with this sort of rock formations. Thanks for posting.

Really like No 2 the best here. The yellow blooms bring out the yellow in the rock and the soft light works for me.
