Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Perspective II (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-10D
Lens: Canon EF 28-135mm F/3.5-5.6 IS USM
Location: Rural Conejos County in Colorado
Date: Sep 13, 2005
Aperture: F9.5
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/250
Galleries: Landscape, Rural
Date Uploaded: Sep 12, 2005

 Editing: Crop, levels, noise removal, resize, save for web.

It's kind of an awkward crop, I know, it's the only way I could eliminate the telephone poles in the distance on either side and a spot of sensor dust that was in the sky.

This is a sprinker along the road not too far from our house. In this light it looks like a dragon to me. There is a little forest fire in the hills and it looks like dragon smoke so added to the atmosphere.
