    Been too long since I posted a picture!



    This was taken a month ago in the desert east of Las Vegas while I was at PMA.

      Thanks Jon - the bluey shadows in the hills irritates me but I'm not sure what, if anything, can be done there. But I am pleased with the against the light thorns

        could be atmospheric conditions causing them. in virginia we have a range of the appalachian called the 'blue ridge mountains'. from a distance they give off a very bluish tone...hence the name. i thought nothing of it in your image since being used to it.

                  I too like this picture Ian, it reminds me very much of some shots I took in Joshua Tree National Park, which I guess is very similar terrain. Though when I was there it was well over 100F The light on the cacti though is great and contrasts well with the blue of the sky
