Owachomo Bridge at Night, Utah


This picture of the Natural Bridges National Monument was taken by Jim Richardson. This is just one photograph in his gallery called Light Pollution: Our Vanishing Night. In his gallery, he shows the brillance of natural star light and the negative effect of man-made light. I like this picture because Richardson does a wonderful job of framing. He uses the rock formation to frame out part of the sky and its stars. I also like how he used light to emphasize the beauty of the rock formation. The light is coming from beneath to eluminate the bridge. He also uses the rule of thirds by having the horizon line at the bottom third, which thus puts more emphasis on the stary night sky.
