While driving to Bishop, I couldn’t resist pulling over in Lone Pine, CA, as the cloudy skies unfolded in a breathtaking display overhead. The brilliant white clouds billowed and swirled, demanding to be captured. I quickly set up my camera on the shoulder of the highway, using the jagged peaks of the Sierra Nevada mountains to compose the scene. The result was a striking black and white photograph that perfectly balanced the chaotic sky with the steadfast mountains—a fleeting moment preserved in timeless contrast.
