Haven't been 'dgrinning' for a long time now...Man has the place grown :clap

With winter just around the corner I thought I'd post a couple cool ones.

First is the the view from Bogus Basin Rd. looking west towards the Ohwyees, which you can see in the distance.

Second is Joshua Tree NP a few years ago after a rare winter storm. I was soooo lucky to be there that day.

    Lucky like you can't believe. It was magical and I was there before the magazine guys showed up.

    I am not sure what kinda guy I am ne_nau.gif

    Fine art landscape if anything, but it is horribly frustrating at times :cry That's why I gave up shooting for the past several months. I guess I suffered from a form of 'shooter's block.' I was always searching for the perfect capture and not enjoying the overall experience.

    Drgin and all the great bowdown.gif members helped bring me back I guess.
