King of Wings

Oct 22 2026 | By: Jim Zuckerman Photography

This is the very unusual rock formation called King of Wings in the Bisti Badlands of New Mexico. I took this at sunset with a 16mm focal length. My settings were 1/125, f/18, and 1600 ISO. I used to use a tripod for virtually all my landscape photography, but now with the ability to raise the ISO without negative consequences, I can shoot with a small aperture for depth of field and still use a shutter speed that guarantees sharp pictures. I took this image using daylight white balance, not AWB, thus I was able to capture the golden colors of sunset that I saw.
