My first vacation of the last year
So I manage to squeeze some time off, and took my wife and mother along with me. Decided to stay local and rented a car. I had planned on driving as far as I can go, everyday. On our first day, I took them to Salton Sea. I have always been intrigued by this man-made disaster or a lake. The pictures I have been seeing has been something that has always interested me. Dark, mysterious, and plenty of content to document.
I was only there for two hours, on the best time of the day, sunset. I managed to capture some breathtaking images, which I feel has suited my long need to come visit this place. I was so impressed, and I am looking forward to coming back, and really focusing on a deeper photography connection.
Here are some of the first images I had edited.
The image above was something I saw, and really wanted to focus on. at first, I took some shots from below, but after a few frames into it, I saw in my viewfinder the amazing composition this displaying in my view dslr. I was very pleased with the outcome, considering the light was decreasing.
I always have a 'thing' for shooting angles that requires me kneeling and unable to view my view finder. It's a form of gamble photography. I set my focus points first, and then try and compose vertical or horizontal. After a few shots, I managed to pick an image that really communicated to what I was looking for. Above is the image I came up with.
One word, tranquility. In the breeze of dead fish smell, the sight overshadowed the foul smell.
