The Last Supper


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest GRAND PRIZE Winner   The Last Supper
The Last Supper
Rhyolite is a ghost town in Death Valley with its own outdoor art gallery. A wonderful place to capture interesting images, I could not resist this plaster sculpture of The Last Supper by Albert Szukalski. At roughly three in the afternoon the sun provided perfect backlighting to provide glow and shadows. I used a Sony lens 18-200mm with my Sony DSLR, ISO 100, f/13.0, focal length 45.0mm. Was not out to do any fancy work so all my settings were standard.

  My GOODNESS! I simply cannot thank each and every one of you enough for taking the time to be so supportive with your wonderful comments. October was my first month at BetterPhoto and, discovering it to be such a warm photo community, I plan on sticking around for a long time! I wish I could give all of you a big ol' HUG, but, that not being possible, let me wish everyone a wonderful Holiday Season and a shiny bright New Year! THANK YOU :)
