The one thing about cemetaries, like the Mountain View Cemetary, is all the cool entrances to the various crypts and masoleums. There’s a wide array of patina, rust, and other surfaces; not to mention the variety of types of doors and gates. For this particular shot, I set up the camera high on the tripod because the spokes were at a height taller than me. I manually focused on a lower portion of the door, then raised the tripod to about level with the spokes, and used a remote trigger to take the shot. It took a few attempts to get the shot I wanted.
Next time? I bring a step stool.
