Master 1490 - Tape 2 Color-faded TLS hunched & sprawled Joshua tree atop desert hill, perfectly still clouds in BG. Great LS desert sunset (magic hour), setting sun hiding behind clouds, darkening them in the process. TLS magic hour sky near river, pine trees. Hues & colors like an ancient Western of Biblical overtones. Note that this is a fine example of 1930s foray into color film, hence the peculiar (by today's standards) color gamma, aesthetic.
