alone out there

It's amazing what a different angle and different settings can do for a photo. Exact same place, pretty much the same time as the last photo.

It appears that this photo has more shadow detail and the previous photo had more highlight detail. I like how the mood changes. It would also be an interesting experiment to see if you could combine the two photos. Well done on both images e. :0)
