Revisiting Amazing Locations

A recap from a special camping spot... Loved it here in Monument Valley, Utah. The night shot below basically shows the view I had from my tent as the moon rose over the valley. The early morning image was shot at 5:30 AM somewhat farther down in the desert. This was a truly special spot to hang and I am anxiously awaiting the opportunity to return here again.

Contrast yet Complimentary

Triberg Waterfalls-- tallest/largest falls in Germany. Here a favorite spot along the falls, boasting a beautiful perspective... now just to capture the same scene during winter, possibly frozen.
On the right, A jetty stretching out into the Atlantic Ocean in my former Home of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

I placed these images together as a contrast between two extremes. Both images using long-exposure to bring about a dynamic perspective to normal destinations often not captured in the right light. Also, both images use completely different color pallets-- however, as green and magenta are complimentary colors they fit well next to one another.
