Shiprock Milky Way - a photo on Flickriver

Shiprock Milky Way

I was lucky enough to tag along on a wonderful night photography trip with Wayne Pinkston at the beginning of May (we were also joined by Eric Gail and Chris Wray). One of my 'must sees' was Shiprock. It is sacred to the Navajo people and it's not hard to see why. At 1,583 feet, it stands out from the flat landscape around it and can be seen for miles. I know the usual composition from this side is with the lava fin in the immediate foreground, but I loved this worn track, so that's what I chose to focus on.

If you'd like, take a look at my other night images.
