Easy 4-Step Program: Get up before dawn, go down to the saltlake for some sweet sunrise shots. Discover clouds and fog. Wave goodbye to all hope of seeing sun actually rise.
Walk around until you find a broken plastic sword, place it on a rock and grovel in the dirt to photograph it.

I love this piece of junk. It's been there for years. I remember photographing it with a film SLR over three years ago....

Thanks :) Me too. Really random thing to find in the middle of a dried up salt lake. Just had to pull a King Arthur-type scene with it. Arthur was a bit too strong :D
