There are certain things that make landscape photographers happy. – a pretty sunset, repeating shapes and forms, sun-rays, pretty colors, contrasting colors, etc. But what makes a landscape photographer really happy is to get them all in one photo, like this image I shot a couple of weeks ago at Vermejo Park Ranch.

I am holding a photo workshop there next month, so if you would like to see this amazing place, let me know!

Sunset looking into San Luis Valley from Vermejo Park Ranch, Colorado USA. Vermejo Park Ranch headquarters is in New Mexico. Canon 5DIII. 200mm. ISO 800. f/11 @ 1/125 second. I kept the shutter speed up because I was standing on a very window mountain-top that was really shaking the camera.
