In this image I like you to study the lines that were carved by the elements. Notice that I did not put the large vertical line into the center of the image. Do you know why?
Enjoy and keep on photographing!

Overexposed 05
Trees are great to overexpose, especially this eucalyptus tree that has a real light surface color. See how the green is almost washed out.
Happy week-end and keep creating great images!
Rocks #13
In this image one rock dominates the entire composition. Your eyes will automatically wander to the biggest and/or brightest point in the image.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!
Rocks #12
This is another image from Point Lobos. There used to be salt water surrounding these small rocks. The water evaporated and the salt stayed.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!
Rocks #11
This week I ask you to continue to photograph rocks. Maybe you do what I did, you go to a different location and photograph rocks.
Last weeks images were from the Alabama Hills located on the east side of the Sierra Nevada. This weeks images are from Point Lobos, south of Carmel, CA at the Pacific coast. There are many beautiful rocks embedded in larger stone. The small rocks are very colorful and full of structure.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!
Rocks #10
This is another rock formation photographed at the Alabama Hills. It reminds me of a horn of a large Rhino.
Enjoy and have a great week-end!
Rocks #09
This is the Mobius Arch in the Alabama Hills. A few years ago it was pictures on the national parks annual pass.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!
Rocks #08
Two pointing fingers, that is coming to my mind when I look at this image. This is one of the many arches that you can photograph at Alabama Hills.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!
Rocks #07
Walking in the Alabama hills can get hot in the Summer time, but it is definitely worth it. There are so many photo opportunities that you need to take your time and carefully compose your shot. In this image I like the structure of the rocks and how the sunlight creates interesting shadows.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!
Rocks #06
Three years ago we photographed small rocks in a studio setting. This time I ask you to go outside and photograph rocks. Watch the light and the shadows! Take a look at the structure and don’t forget to have fun with this exercise!
I crossed Tioga pass and drove to a relatively small area called the Alabama hills, outside Lone Pine, CA. Many western have been filmed there in the 1950s and 60s. I found very interesting rock formations and even a few arches in this unique high desert landscape. Enjoy and create some great images!
