This is another subject photographed in the same location as Barrel №1. I’d taken some hand held shots the day before, but upon reviewing them decided to return with my tripod. I also took along a collapsible reflector to help throw light into the deep shadows, but actually ended up using it to block the rising sun. Even so, I caught a bit of flare—which fortunately seems to belong in the scene.
