Dawn on the Jetty

Image No. BDSP0101: Dawn on the Jetty.  Oct. 22, 2016.  Nikon D7000 with DX 18-200mm VR zoom lens at 40mm, f/16, 1/6 sec., ISO 140.  Image specs: 4858 x 3216 pixels, 2.8 MB file size.

At Bruneau Dunes State Park, in order to catch the colors of the sunrise on this scene, I was running from my camper to this jetty, where I’d scouted and planned my shot the day before.  When I reached the jetty I was momentarily stunned by this fisherman’s presence, against my expectations and planning, but quickly set up my camera and tripod and took the shot, realizing that he added the Zen factor that was otherwise missing.
