Abandoned Homestead - Bozeman, Montana
My friends Craig Dugas, Eric Barnes and I went out for a photo drive earlier tonight. The local photo shop - F11 - had conducted a photo shoot at this abandoned homestead a few weeks ago, but we were unable to attend. So tonight we used the directions they provided for the shoot to find our way to the site. Although the directions were circuitous, we finally found our way after driving way too fast on a few sketchy backroads (we were racing the setting sun, you know!). We were rewarded with a great sunset - here is one of my favorite shots of the night. I mounted my FL-50 flash to open up the details of the abandoned house but still get the incredible sunset happening in the background. I am pretty happy with the results. Raw file finished off in Lightroom with minimal post-processing, sharpening, and crop.
