    Thanks Guy's, It is a great place, it had been 11 years since my last visit.
    Won't let that happen again.

    CWSkopec, you really want to go in throught the 29 Palms entrance to Jumbo Rocks campground. mwink.gif

    Thanks for the tip!thumb.gif

    If I remember right, our campsite is at Black Rocks campground, but we'll be there from Friday afternoon until whenever we decide to leave Sunday so I'm sure we'll have a chance to get over that way!

    I like #2 better, the light striking the branches is a nice effect.

    On #1 I don't like the shadow cutting the boulder, you might have gotten there too late for the non shadow shot.

    This is a stunning location. I like the feel of #2 but placement of the tree in the center just does not feel right to me.

    Thanks everyone for the comments. I like when others like.
    I agree on the placment of the shot could have been better, but I had 2 things working against me, 1. it was pich dark out, and 2. I had one night out there when I was supposed to have 5, so I was kind of rushed yet I should have learned that even rushed, try to get at least one good shot and not just say to yourself, ok, what's next. Know what I mean?
    It probably would have been better with the daylight framing, oh well, at least I can still crop. :D
