"Acknowledge yourself for how far you have come, instead of how far you think you have to go." I'm always happy to see you at My Gallery. I appreciate all of you. Thanks, Anita
Hello Jen, I guess you're now back in your 'winter abode'... ;-) What an amazing landscape - looks like something from a sci-fi planet but I'm relieved to see the sky is 'normal' and definitely Planet Earth. I'd be a little concerned to venture into this sort of terrain without a 6-gallon water-cooler in the back of the car. Looks hot!... and you've captured the aridness of the place very effectively.
Don't tell me it's good, tell me what is good about it. Don't tell me it stinks, tell me what I can do do improve it. Thank you for taking the time to tell me anything at all. Be blessed. anne :-)
I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I saw a needle that winked its eye.
But I think I will have seen everything
When I see an elephant fly.

Great shot, Jen. I come from a place in Eastern Canada where the soil is close to this colour because of its high iron content, which literally rusts (ferous oxide is red) when exposed to the air. See example. I wonder if the same is true here in Arizona? Thanks for posting; very attractive and interesting shot. Cheers- Dave
wonderful composition Jen! The profile of the mountains against the sky is supurb! I love the rich browns of the rocky landscape and the bright blues of the sky! well done!

If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry D. Thoreau
jsut love the texture in it...there are so many different textures. love the clouds...i almost feel like i am standing right there right now. great capture! ~abby
This shot has most of the punch to make a good eye pleasing landscape. What lacks is the glory of the light and the time of the day which can create more drama. Well done.
