Congratulations to 2019 WEST Best Shot Contest winner, Greg Beck! Beck’s shot, “Waiting for the meteor shower,” was taken in the Northern Arizona high desert, about 15 miles from Meteor Crater.
Beck says, “I arrived early to the Perseid Meteor Shower. After hours waiting for the cloud filled Northern horizon to clear, I took a break and caught up on Anthony Bourdain on an iPad. I turned the camera around to get shots of my campsite underneath the Milky Way, and ended up with my favorite selfie yet.”
Beck’s Equipment:
– Canon 6D mk1
– Rokinon fully manual 24mm f/1.4 lens
– Timelapse+ Intervalometer
– Manfrotto tripod
– 2006 Toyota Tacoma with too many additions to list
