When out chasing along BNSF’s Needles Subdivision, as a matter of survival, well at least comfort, I prefer to shoot photos when the sun in lower in the sky, say about within 15 degrees of the horizon or so, that occurs at sunrise and sunset. In part to overcome the harsher summer light but also because it is much cooler!
Here are a four photos from a recent outing to the Needles Subdivision near East Cadiz, California:
