The scene is of mountains in the lower half of the image and stormy skies in the upper half. On the left is a high rock face on steep hills coming down to the bottom of the image. The right middle ground has mountain peaks farther in the distance.

Sign Post

This sign post is at the intersection of California Hwy 168 and the road to Eureka Dunes in Death Valley NP. This area has so much to explore and fall is the perfect time to do so.

A photograph showing a sign post with directions to various areas in the White Mountains area. The background shows the Sierra Nevada in the distance with partly cloudy skies.

That is an amazing shot the way you caught the berry suspended between the birds beak.

I love this image. It’s great. I’m curious how do you digitize your images? I shoot pinhole too sometimes and photograph my negatives with my Leica M 11 60 megapixel. And then I bring it into Lightroom works quite well.

Beautiful shot. I’ve tried to take self portraits of myself and continue to fail. Thanks.
