I think Zulu was expecting lush greenery and a place to swim, and was somewhat disappointed. We were in Rock Hound State Park in southern New Mexico. In parts of this park you are allowed to dig for gem stones, etc.

No wonder Zulu is disillusioned! But the image is nice with all the contrasts, lighting and those odd rock formations.

I had a coon hound, fox hound and horehound candy, Doug, but I've never owned a rock hound. I think he has a mountain treed.
Wonderful shot.

Yep, Zulu's going no water here ... just more desert scenery. Wonderful B & W, Doug.

Very nice work on this Doug, it looks like a rather harsh environment.

So who dug up more gems, you or Zulu; or was he burying them as fast as you could dig them up? A great looking scene Doug. Good composition and contrasts. I like the shadows and lighting in the photo. The only thing I would change would be ti get rid of the vignetting effect/look in the sky.
