"Linn Cove Viaduct from Rough Ridge Overlook – Milepost 302.8" by John MacLean Photography

Location: Linn Cove Viaduct from Rough Ridge Overlook – Milepost 302.8
A lone car winds the last stretch of the viaduct before dawn.

Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark III
Lens: Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM
Focal Length: 70mm
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/8
Aperture: f7.1
Filters: None
Exposure: Manual
How I Got This Shot: I hiked to the very top of the trail and setup my tripod on the angled rock. Rather than zooming in, I wanted to give a feeling of the surroundings, so I framed both the tower on the left and all of the visible viaduct on the right.
