Great shots
I recently spent a week in Nevada doing some Army training. Who decided it was a good idea to go to the DESERT in the SUMMER, I don't know. I did however take the chance to snap a few photos in between work. I learned the desert is a harsh, but beautiful scenery. I also threw in a "Faces" picture of me getting ready for the day. That's my Alias, Joe E.O.D.irt.
Quote:The heat is bearing down on my wide brimmed hat with what seems like more effort than usual. The gravel beneath my feet is scorching, and dry as a bone. The cliffs and hills are deep reds, and warm tans. The sky a rich, deep blue. The sweat on my skin forms little beads, glistens in the sun. I've never sat and taken in the scenes, and sights of a desert in such perfect solitude. It's harsh, brutal. The desert will take from you, and never give you anything. The area around me seems to be void and lifeless. Yet I see quail, lizards, and bugs who survive in perfect harmony with their world. I long to be in such perfect harmony. My skies dark and blue, my hills rich with color. To quinch my thirst, and satisfy my need for happiness. For now though, I'll just lean back and be part of this desert.

Kyle,
Spent quite a few days in the wonderful town of Fallon, Nevada when I was in the Nav. Hard to beat the sunrises and sunsets out west. Recently had a opportunity to go back to New Mexico for some DHS classes through the fire dept. Makes me miss traveling on Uncle's dime, although I do not think I would want to partake in desert training in the middle of the summer. Great pics Chris  I will admit that I'm no photographer but I think that this picture look's pretty good. The location is Ell Pond which is in Hospital Square, looking over towards West Emerson St and Lake Ave, Melrose Massachusetts...

Probably one of two scenic photo's I have ever taken that i saw after and liked. i snapped this about 3 weeks ago around 6pm on a dirt road in New Durham, NH while out for a drive to ward off boredom. I was just messing around, saw what I knew was gonna be an approaching thunderstorm in teh distance and said "what the hell" and snapped it. The funny thing is I was listening to Pink Floyd's "Animals" album at the time, and if you look at the cloud formation, it looks like a pig!
photo by me.

Thanks Kyle, while harsh and unforgiving, the desert is a beautiful place that is actually full of life.

Great Blue Heron, Southfield, MA 08-18-09 - Photoshop for resizing and some minor cropping...this swamp is alongside the dirt road I live on. After several shots from road level, I got up on the bed rail/tailgate of my pick up truck and was able to drawn down on the lil birdy while trying not to fall off...I think it was worth it!

So I took my new Manfrotto tri-pod up to Seattle's Alki Beach. I was hoping to wait for the sun to go down, but rain put a damper on it. So my night stills will have to wait....
I like the posey.
