The Loner…
by Rodney Campbell on Apr.15, 2017, under Life, Photography
A single lone fern battles the elements of nature at the bottom of this Dry Canyon. A loner since the day it was born it lives here in solitude in a land that time forgot. It was setup perfectly for this shot – placed dead centre and all alone in this stretch of slot canyon.
Loner
NIKON D750 + 14.0 mm f/2.8 @ 14 mm, 1/10 to 6 sec at f/13, ISO 100
They call this region of the Central Tablelands of New South Wales, the Gardens of Stone National Park. Somewhat apt in this case I think.
Thanks to Gerry for the quick loan of his camera & tripod to take the frames for this. I had unfortunately only brought my drone in here this afternoon and not my “real” camera.
Well except I did manage to take this pretty epic shot of Suren in the canyon with my iPhone (something I would normally never do – shudder!!!). Maybe what they say is right – it isn’t the camera, it’s the photographer… nah… :).
Folds
iPhone 6 + iPhone 6 back camera 4.15mm f/2.2 @ 4.15 mm, 1/17 sec at f/2.2, ISO 2000
It’s lucky you only need to see this on a small screen – zoom in (even a little) and it’s just noise and smeared detail. So totally still need that D-SLR with it’s much larger sensor and “real” optics.
