    gorgeous - looks almost like a painting, especially the backdrop of mountains... love the layers there.

    Thanks, Joel. That' was my wife's first impression. My response: "is that a good thing?"

    Thanks, Ron. Yes, so far it has been amazing, but it's only been a week. Looking forward to hitting some of your spots, like punch bowl falls and many others.

    Hi Dan,

    That's one of the most impressive shots of a desert scene that I can remember seeing.....truly exceptional.

    Dan, this is really a spectacular photo. I love the depth of field--the cactus in the foreground receding in to the distance helps give that feeling. I love the slope of the hill in the foreground on the right, giving way to the distant mountain ranges on the right. And the colors in the sky and reflected on the distant mountain range are so beautiful. There is something to look at in every part of this wonderful photo. Thank you for posting it. Best, Pam

    Well actually, Dan, you just quit your day job (and not a moment too soon, given your photography talent,) so you can't stop shooting anytime soon. If you stopped posting these gorgeous photos, the rest of us would go into withdrawal--too cruel! Merry Christmas, Pam clap.gif

    Hey, Phill. This location is a five minute drive followed by a 30 minute moderate hike. Thanks for the kind words. :D
