Dusky El Paso Mountains.....

Photograph by Scott Schwartz.

I don't have too much to say about this photograph.  It is one of the many that I have taken during my trips to the El Paso's over the years.

As is usual when I shoot landscape photographs, my Nikon D70 was set in the "aperture priority" mode.  For landscapes, I want maximum depth of field, so I use very small apertures.

In this case, my aperture was set at F20, and the shutter speed was 1/40th of a second.  I don't remember if I used a tripod.

I do remember that I took the photograph during the late-afternoon "sweet-light", when the sun is lower in the sky, thus resulting in softer lighting.
