Black Rock Desert
This is where I grew up.
I took this photo as a set up shot for <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/liquidinplastic/2495851845/">this photo</a> with Tasha.
This was my first shot to gauge the ambient light and composition. I ended up darkening the ambient to make her stand out. Later on, I found this shot and I like it as a landscape.
Comments
This photo is one I find compelling in a positive way, although some people think of deserts as places that are ugly. I always have loved the wide-open spaces though. Being from a mountainous and forested part of the country, it is quite a novelty to be able to actually see a proper flat horizon.
The first time I saw Texas, I said "The sky is bigger here"
