Summer Lake’s scenery is full of drama
From a distance, clouds, water, and flora all play parts in a scene
Up close, individual plants become the stars
From the sky, works of art are minor components of a vast playa backdrop
Up close, the strength of a single piece of art shines
From above, an old barn is one of several structures on the sagebrush set
Up close, the barn’s face is shown in its best light
From a distance, the action of a cattle drive scene blurs in a cloud of dust
Up close, a cowhand and his dog costars come into sharp focus
Summer Lake’s scenery is part of an impressive production, from a distance and up close

Great choice of photos for the challenge, Siobhan. Those two opening photos add drama with those gorgeous skies, but all of the landscapes are cinematic in feel.

Loved your up-close/far-away approach on this one Siobhan, very clever. Your opening image and the old barn are my favorites this week.
Thanks, Tina! I'll be returning to Summer Lake soon and hope to take more interesting photos.
Terrific photos highlight the contrasts in perspective, distance, and elevation. Well done.
Thank you so much! 😃
Excellent images, Siobhan, and very cinematic! Your first image is stunning. I also liked the cattle images. Well done!
Thanks, Joanne! I've been waiting to use that first photo. Perfect prompt for it.
