Flame Azalea at Roan Mountain

by Ed Fuhr Photography

"Flame Azalea at Roan Mountain" by Ed Fuhr Photography

Date Taken: 06/17/2016
Location: Roan Mountain

Camera: Canon 1dx Mark II
Lens: canon 24-70
Focal Length: 63
ISO: 1250
Shutter: 1/30
Aperture: f14
Filters: Polarizer
Exposure: Manual
How I Got This Shot: This was captured late Friday; a significant rain was blowing in and the light was fading. While my new 1dx can handle high ISO’s I really did not want to go above 1250, but wanted some depth of field to lend a foggy, mood feel to the scene. The challenge was the blowing wind. A brief lull allowed me to get this shot.
