Wichita Mountains, Oklahoma – Mount Scott Scouting Photography, Part 2

With my DSLR in hand, I began a more extensive exploration around the summit of Mount Scott.

Since I was passing this interesting tree again, I had to shoot it with my DSLR, trying to get variations on my initial iPhone scouting photos.

Reaching Limbs
Rolling Hills
Granite Alley
Made in the Shade
Forced Shade

I know these three photos are similar, but this unique tree shading the granite rock, inspired a number of thoughts and offered numerous compositional variations.  I couldn’t decide which image I liked best, so here are several of my favorites.

That’s it for now,
