- field_caption
- We were leaving the Trona Pinnacles after spending the night there when I looked back and saw the hazy morning light striking the landscape in a really magical way. I used the 300mm setting on my lens to compress the pinnacles up against the mountains in the background. I converted the picture to black and while to emphasize the shapes of the pinnacles and their relationship to the mountains.
