and then immediately realized that &#8220;I do what I want!&#8221; and pulled over (safely of course).\u00a0 Now naturally there was a fence to keep people out which meant it was time to stand on top of my car.\u00a0 If you ever see me photograph you&#8217;ll know this is my favorite place to be.\u00a0 Plus the added fun of people driving by me at highway speeds most likely thinking &#8220;what the hell is that guy doing!?&#8221;.\u00a0\u00a0 Next step was to wait.\u00a0 Of course, this is landscape photography after all.\u00a0 With the clouds above I needed the sun to pop through to backlight these trees and make them POP.\u00a0 As the clouds parted a bit and the sun snuck (apparently this is not a real word, but we&#8217;re making it one) through I quickly captured this scene, climbed down off the roof of my car and was back on the road.\u00a0 All in a days work. \ud83d\ude42<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nTHANKS!<br \/>\naF<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nIf you are interested in Collecting this <em>unreleased<\/em> image please contact any of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/afeinberggallery\/\">aFeinberg Galleries<\/a>!<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_151\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/2012-10-15_286web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-151  \" title=\"&quot;Passing You By&quot;\" alt=\"Backlit aspens along a stretch of road in the Eastern Sierra\" src=\"http:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/2012-10-15_286web-300x106.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"106\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/2012-10-15_286web-300x106.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/2012-10-15_286web-700x249.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/2012-10-15_286web-200x71.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/2012-10-15_286web.jpg 1033w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Passing You By&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It happens.\u00a0 We&#8217;re driving down the road, maybe someone else is at the wheel, and there&#8217;s that image that flys by our window.\u00a0 &#8220;Man, wish I had a camera&#8221;.\u00a0 Photographer or not we have the same experiences.\u00a0 On my last full day in the Eastern Sierra in Oct &#8217;12 I was driving south to go [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":151,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[43,9,11,10,8,42],"class_list":["post-150","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-trip-report","tag-aspen","tag-autumn","tag-california","tag-eastern-sierra","tag-fall","tag-feinberg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/150","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=150"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/150\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/151"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=150"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=150"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.afeinbergphotography.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=150"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
