Rough Ridge Sunset

by Jeff Burcher Photography

"Rough Ridge Sunset" by Jeff Burcher Photography

Date Taken: 06/19/2014
Location: Rough Ridge, Milepost 302.8
One of the most gorgeous sunsets I’ve ever witnessed down in the North Carolina mountains.

Camera: Nikon D-90
Lens: NIKKOR 10–24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED
Focal Length: 10mm
ISO: 250
Shutter: 3/4 second
Aperture: F/11
Filters: circular polarizer
Exposure: Manual
How I Got This Shot: I set up the camera on a tripod while leaning against the rail for support in the 30-40 mph winds. I chose this composition because it had less vegetation blowing around in the gusty winds.
