I have been to Steptoe Butte three times in the last few months. I always find it a very enjoyable place to visit as I notice a lot of other photographers do.
This time around, I have tried to capture a bit more of the feel of the place. I am not sure how well I have succeeded, but I did try. There will be a few pictures in this thread.
I hope you all find something here that you like.

1. Obviously not Steptoe Butte at all, but you will see these all over the area.

    Nicely done, Ron! Your Palouse shots are getting better and better. #13, in particular, is amazing! Strong work! thumb.gif
    Shoot in RAW because memory is cheap but memories are priceless.

    Really good series. I agree with Mahesh in that you do seem to be getting better. These shots really capture the feel of the area.

    Nice series! As the sun is going down you start getting superior light starting in #11. I really like #11-14 in the series.

    Nice work..
