Hi folks,

i took this image last year while exploring this area, to be honest i didn't find anything interesting in this area to shoot, so while i decide to leave the area i was lucky to find this Alien :biggrin: at the end of the day and this is my best result from that day.

Olympus OM-D, 12-50mm, ISO 200, 2 exposures

thanks for watching in advance

I thought maybe that a bit of light to the darker area might help show some objects of interest but nope...it's pretty bleak out there. :wink:

Hamed,

Aesthetically, not much in it for me, but from a nature story telling point of view, this is terrific! The overturned bush tells of some extreme conditions, and recent ones, considering this guy is still green.

I think you did a good job handling the light and exposure, just enough detail in the rock. but this does have a bit of a gloomy look and feel to it.

Oh, my! Compared to your usual images, this is a surprise. Wow, this is a rough looking place-- gloomy and dark, and... deadly. Poor bush, just couldn't hang on... And yet it reflects the light of life. What a marvelous, evocative photograph.
