Path through the Summer Scents
by Tien-Chien Chen
This was shot after a short hike, once I determined my 2WD won’t make it all the way to the trail head. My tent is just a few feet from where I took this image. The wind blew constantly, hence it’s rare for the few seconds of stillness that complete this shot.
Equipment: 4.0s at f/22, EF24-70mm f/2.8L USM at 28mm, ISO100 Tripod.
Tien-Chien Chen
Amateur photographer based in Colorado.

    Must have been quite a lull in the wind for a lond exposure like that. Looks as if the flowers were not blowing around at all. Superb composition.

    From Super action yesterday to Total peace today.
    Tranquil shot, very nice.

  13. Dennis Says:

    Very nice composition and use of a slow shutter speed. The red on the hills looks a little oversaturated, though.

  14. planet lover Says:

    Beautiful place. It invites you to walk all the way up to the source. But the water is too blue…
