Description
I think it's been years, since I've shot this view. It's full of vivid memories, as it was the first spot that I accidentally wandered upon in the wee hours of the morning, with an overlook of the city of Syracuse. An excited and nervous photographer trying to take it all in, capture good photographs, all the while, not really knowing how safe I was in this isolated location in the middle of the city.
The second time I returned to this location, l lost my new iPhone. I actually drove miles and miles, all the way to the NYS fairgrounds, before I heard something slide across the hood of my truck and hit my windshield and realized that was my cell phone flying off on the highway. It was weeks or months later that I was contacted by someone who found it in the snow, on the shoulder of Rt 690, with a smashed screen, but still working! Crazy!
On this occasion, I was pleasantly surprised to arrive and find I had the spot all to myself. Perhaps the 15 degree temperature, contributed to that fact. I got right down to business, capturing a variety of images, all the while keeping one eye looking over my shoulder. Although the view is beautiful, the thick underbrush, saplings and numerous trees add a real challenge to composition.
Much is lost in the low resolution rendering online, but the full size image is full of high detail, rich colors and looks spectacular! This would make a wonderful large format print on any media. Metal or acrylic for rich color and sharp detail. Somerset velvet or other fine art paper for a softer, more painterly effect.
