Westward Facing Overlook Question
Ok I've got another question (Big surprise) I am knew to Lancaster county PA
and noticed on my way home today a sign for Breezy overlook which is across the street for Chickees Rock park on Rt. 441. I haven't gone all the way out to the overlook but have seen some photos and they are beautiful. from the overlook you are facing just about Due west. The question is.. Is it worth trying to shoot at dawn with the light coming up behind you or should I just attempt dusk shots? It's only a mile from my house but I am out of shape .

Could be nice at either time, Morning light illuminating
clouds in the western sky, very pastel color sometimes. Western sky back lit clouds etc. With the light of the sun behind you you have to stand some what off axis to avoid your own shadow. I am in Maryland so I just might have a peek at where that is.

... It's only a mile from my house but I am out of shape Out of shape doesn't count - just allow yourself more time and get out there - the rewards will justify every step. After all, if us cripples can do it, you can, too. :^) Bob in Las Vegas |
