“On this frigid fall evening, my buddy Miles Morgan and I set out to capture this ancient tree under the stars. Every inch of the evening sky was filled with stars. This tree sits on a very steep slope with loose rock surrounding the base. With confidence and ease, I was able to set up my RRS TVC-33 tripod with no problems at all. It is always a pleasure to go out with my RRS tripod and ballhead set up.”
