Death-Valley-Dunes-1153
All kinds of mammals set their tracks in the dunes here. The crest of the dunes in this image is laden with human tracks. While I have tried most of the time to keep human elements out of my images I no longer strive so hard to do so. After all, we are animals too. The mix of wild animal and human animal tracks here shows my hope for a cohesive and mutually beneficial relationship between man/womankind and the land and her wild creatures.

horseshoe-bend-01
Horseshoe Bend, Page AZ. Just looking at this image takes my breath away and brings back the feeling of awe, thrill and vertigo that raced through my veins upon first contact with theis scene. A long walk through the sandy desert brings a person to this scene and you really don't see it until you are right up on it! The expansive scene is breathtaking and you look down 1000 feet to view the bend in the Colorado River below. I scooted carefully on my butt and laid on my stomach to look down and photograph this stitched image. My 18mm lens made four vertical images that were stitched to make this final image.

Poppies-4621
Field of Poppies bathed in early morning light. The light here caught my eye as it played gently with its colorful subjects. I had 30 minutes maybe to play with the scene. As quickly as it arrived it rolled its magic outward, spreading word that the new day had arrived.
