The picture is in black and white. The light in the picture is directly ahead and above. The picture is blown out in the middle towards the top. There are trees in two thirds from the bottom of the pictures on the left and then the tree line smoothly increases to about one eighth from the top on the right and then becomes a dense forest on the top. The parts not covered by trees are barren, a desert. Besides the bottom right and the dense forest mentioned before, all the trees appear to be burned. The picture is taken from a helicopter and is therefore a few thousand feet up. The picture is taken early in the morning so the shadows are long and makes the burned trees look denser than they really are. There is a road, highway 120, running from the bottom left of the picture to the middle right of the picture. The picture is cut in two by what looks like a cliff. It starts at the about one tenth from the top left of the photo and then gradually goes down to one fifth from the top right. Because of the long shadows the picture has a sense of high-speed motion. Everything is in focus. There does not appear to be much if any motion blur, this means that a fast shutter time was used. This also means that a high ISO was used. One left top quadrant of the picture there seems to be a canyon in a ‘y’ shape. To the right of the ‘y’ canyon is a lake. To the left of the ‘y’ is a river that continues from edge of the left of the quadrant and then continues to the top of the right side. In the burned trees there are patches of barren earth where trees never grew. The exposure of the whole photo is good. A high dynamic range shot would have help more as there would not have been a blown out portion in the middle of the picture. The picture is below.
