Rudy Dierks

This image was taken in Nevada at the Valley of Fire State Park. The early morning light really helps bring out the unusual colors of the rock formations. The image was shot using a Canon 5D camera with a 24mm lens.

Rust in Peace – Greg Smith

Greg says of his image:

“Rust In Peace” was my representation of “decay”.  A visit to the wreck of the Peter Iredale was a side trip from our camping trip to Cannon Beach last year.  I was hesitant to shoot the scene due to the mid-day sun and abundance of tourists.  With a little coaxing, I grabbed my camera and looked for a vantage point and moment that made for an interesting (and people free) image.  A mask layer was used in Lightroom to balance the mid-day sky with the rest of the image.  The image was shot using my Canon 5d Mk IV and 24-105mm lens.  The camera settings were: ISO 400, 24mm, f/18, and 1/80 second.

Congratulations, Greg!! Look for Greg’s photo in the Daily Courier!
