The Parting Shot
This was the last photo I took in Oregon last month. On the last morning of our workshop, a couple of us wandered down the path from the beach house to the ocean. This branch was at the base of the path - it reminded me of a bonsai tree. Sunrise was mellow yet colorful. I got lower, framed up, and pressed the shutter.

The rolling hills of Zabriskie Point offer a unique combination of colors, shapes, and textures.

Scott Davenport is a landscape photographer and photo educator and based in San Diego, California. He leads photo workshops, writes photo books, hosts podcasts, makes tutorial videos, and feels weird referring to himself in the 3rd person.
He also can't help getting his feet wet photographing at the beach.
With sunsets after 11pm and sunrise at 2am, a landscape photographer doesn’t get a lot of sleep.
