Unmanned photograph

Barn near Edwardsville, Illinois
Photograph by Tom Atwood

It's almost as if this picture was taken by a drone camera. No one was looking through the viewfinder, not even a virtual pilot at a monitor miles away. Instead, I took this photo with my arms extended as high above my head as possible. I knew if I got the camera up high enough, higher than I could see, I might get the sunrise in the reflection of the barn window. So I pointed in the general direction and shot this picture, a lovely unmanned photograph. Exposure: 1/30; Aperture: f/7.1; ISO: 100; Focal length: 18 mm.
