I took this photo about three years ago on top of a mountain just outside of Phoenix, AZ. It took me about an hour and a half to get to the top of the mountain and I will be the first to admit that I wasn't climbing the mountain to get this picture.
I'm not sure I understand why anybody climbs a mountain for fun!
I'll bet you wish you had brought oxygen tanks along too! LOL
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you, just because it's there doesn't mean you have to climb it!
Nice vista you captured, looks good in B&W too!
A wonderful view of a Desert Valley!
ReplyDeleteB&W captures the feel of the desert. Dry, Hot, Sun scorched! The pic says it all.
Sometimes a view from the top makes the climb worth the trip!
Knowing what the Spanish window marker was looking at is what made it worth the trip!! :~)
ReplyDeleteI love the desert.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Randy- I love the desert too. Great shot. I laughed out loud after reading your last line! =)Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteRon are you taking your Sigma 150-500 with you on your upcoming trip?
ReplyDeleteAll the camera gear I took this last trip weighed out at 18 lbs. including the flipside 300 backpack. I wound up with a sore back a couple of times but the pictures I got were worth the trouble.
Paul, I'm taking just about everything, including a tripod!
ReplyDeleteI'll have all three of my lenses for the D300 plus my underwater camera and a point and shoot so hopefully I won't miss a thing!
