Another insightful exploration of the Mojave early AM.
I drove around for two hours in the dark only finding something to photograph once there was some light.
Even with GPS its tricky finding your way in the desert darkness due to not having any reference points, just blackness.
Another AM outing this week with a drive through the dark, cold desert. Originally I had a gas station planned for my shot (thinking I could find it my memory) but got completely disorientated in the void and ended up at this cross roads (below). The dawn was breaking and it seemed like a good idea....
Managed to get out and do some night (very early morning) and early light shots which is something I have not done on film for a long long time.
I had forgotten how much more involved film is under not so ideal circumstances, and lets not forget the long exposure times... I also came to the conclusion that a panoramic mounted on a tripod is basically a long large format camera...
