Big Bend Trip This Past Week - 04-22-2011, 07:00 PM

Critique: CC:

The smoke from the Alpine and Fort Davis Fires as well as the one in Mexico made for quite a challenge this past week in Big Bend. They had not had rain since September and conditions were ripe for wildfires. Here are a few this trip....many more to come.

Santa Elena Canyon


Boquillas Canyon


The Window


Terlingua Ghost Town

When asking for CC, the rules state to limit your pictures to 3.
But, other than that, I really like the view from the Window!

The Window is an amazing capture. I like the composition and the colors. Print this out BIG and hang it on the wall.

I was happily suprised that day at Santa Elena. The winds changed that day so the sky was clear. This was my second attempt during the trip. The first time, the smoke diffused the sun coming up so much that the canyon walls did not glow.
