Wrinkle in Time 3

 

North Spur at The Pinnacles: 35mm lens 3.15pm June 21st 1998, an open time shoot. Location: The North Spur is at the tip of an outlying part of The Pinnacles Desert, a remarkable landscape in the Nambung National Park, 245km north of Perth, near Cervantes, Western Australia. Thousands of limestone pillars stand in a sea of yellow sand, surrounded by low coastal heathlands. The Pinnacles take a wide variety of forms, from eroded, smooth, ancient standing stones to jagged, knife-edged teeth. They were formed by the combined effects of plant roots, calcified layers and erosion. The textures on the stones reflect their evolution. Tech Specs: We used a Canon EOS 620 with the 35mm end of our zoom AF lens, mounted onto a Kaidan QuickPan Magnum Head and Manfrotto Tripod. At this moment, the breeze had blown most of the clouds away, allowing for a more even exposure run on this panorama. Compare it to North Spur 1 - what a difference a few minutes can make to the lighting!
