While I think the photo speaks for itself and I am happy with the message I will go a little into the process. This is from a trip to Bodie Ghost Town in California. The composition is basic and follows the rule. The positioning of the wagon wheel and the fact that it is embedded in the ground tells the story of the struggle (and time period) of the settlers and their lives here. It's distance to the homestead completes the story of the hardships of chasing the gold. Meant to be a monument to chasing your dreams no matter the cost. Hope that makes sense.
Not that this matters, at least to me but, I do know people like to know. Camera: Sony A7rII Lens: Sony 16-35mm Settings: f/8 ISO100 35mm 3 exposure HDR -2, 0, +2 Process: Lightroom Classic and Photomatix 32bit RAW process
