When: Winter, 2013

Location: Grimes Canyon, California

Technical: Nikon D600, 24MM Lens, F6.3, ISO 640. Exposure 34 seconds. Camera mounted on a SLIK Pro 340DX tripod. Image captured at 10:58PM.

Photo Backstory: A friend of mine found this location while riding his motorcycle through this same canyon during the day. So he and I trekked out to the location one late overcast night to shoot some night shots. The backlighting in the photo is provided by a rock quarry which operates late into the night. The trick with this photo was capturing inbound/outbound tail lights and head lights. We stayed for about 2 hours capturing outbound but no inbound traffic or vs. versa. In this shot we waited just for the right moment and captured a vehicle coming up the road and one going down. As the car coming up the hill passed behind that small hill (lower center) I closed the shutter (which is why you only see head lights on the lower part of the road).
