Winner: "The Cottonwood Forest Is Magick" By Ross Stone
“This forest is gorgeously golden yellow and I had it all to myself," says Stone. "This forest is off the beaten path and most tourists that visit the area bypass this area entirely, but not me. Besides the cows, I had this spot all to myself and it was quietly beautiful.”
This image was taken off Warm Springs Road near Bishop, California.
Canon 80D, EFS 15-85mm USM at 15mm. Exposure: 1/400 sec., f/4, ISO 100.
