DESCRIPTION
Part Two of the Therapy Therapy session at Vasquez Rocks yesterday, i had to wait for three hours for the sun to peek out at Sunset ......Landscape photography for me is so the Ying Yang of all my other work which is Human Interaction and Documentary where you have to really see and compose fast...this is about slowing it all down....the Hike in with 45lbs of equipment walking around and climbing around hearing the sound of your own body as it interacts with the landscape...finding the Composition..working out where the sun will set ...setting up the shot .shooting some tests ...attaching the Magic Box to the Tripod and then waiting ....all alone ..the sound of the Breeze and a slight chill in the winter air ...looking at the clouds for ages ...lost in the beauty of the Moment ...and then if lucky ...preparation meets Opportunity and the Universe kisses the earth in sublime perfection...
