You don’t have to have top of the line gear to take top of the line photos. This shot was captured with the Canon Rebel XTi/400D at 18mm, f/7.1, and ISO 100.

What makes this shot so great isn’t the camera – it’s the composition. The wide angle from the ground eye view adds some power to the lone tree on the horizon. Also, note the effective use of the rule of thirds for the horizon and the main subject.
