Middle Atlas Mountains, Morocco
Photograph by Vlad Min
The inclusion of the motorcycle in this image is essential to understanding the scale of the setting, and that detail is what makes this shot work. Also, a person riding a motorcycle is a far more effective detail than a passing car would have been; we feel the emptiness of the long, winding road even more acutely.
Although the image has great light and the curves make for a graceful composition, it’s not complete without the motorcycle. Getting a shot like this may require a long wait, but a key detail, however small, may make the shot.
