Desert Landscapes/Panoramas: I often stand in awe of the many diverse landscapes and geological formations that can be found throughout the state of Nevada. It seems that every area I visit has its own unique characteristics that make it special. Trying to capture the essence of an area in a landscape photo can often be quite challenging, however, when successful, also quite rewarding. The pictures shown in this category have been gathered from locations ranging from Utah to California's Death Valley National Park.
Side Note: As the result some relatively recent falls and some resulting medical issues, cannot hike any more. Obviously this has resulted in less pictures than in previous years. Hopefully the pictures here are still enough to provide you with some pleasurable viewing. This page provides the locations and or pages that these pictures were culled from. Visiting the links for a picture will provide you with page on my site describing the area from which it was taken.
