17 Nov 18 Comment For those who have intimated that the saturation is a bit much should visit. No saturation enhancement used here. Perhaps a half-stop underexposed, but this is what the place looks like. Really! Nov 12th
17 Nov 18 Comment Thanks for the visit and the comment. Per your remark and another in our group, wishing for clouds in southern NV requires a lot of patience. This little slip of cloud was a rather rare gift. Nov 11th
17 Nov 18 Comment Joe, I agree. But it was said that the main difference between the pros and the amateurs, at least in film days, was the size of the wastebaskets. Nov 5th
17 Nov 18 Comment And the other end of that boy is really colorful, too. Especially if running for office.
Great pic.

17 Nov 18 Reply I agree. Besides giving a better idea of the full terrain. i redirects attention back into the center of the frame. Just a matter of taste. Nov 4th
17 Nov 18 Comment Thanks for your thoughts. Nov 4th
17 Nov 18 Comment Peter: Thanks. Temperatures follow southwest desert profiles, and rapidly cool at night, but Nevada does not have quite the heights that are seen in AZ or Death Valley (despite the proximity). 100-110 F in the peak of summer, but dry and still comfortable for hikers (who must not mind sweating almost imperceptibly). I've never had a day there when I said it was too hot to get out of the car. And the rock formations (hinted at to the (R) of the frame) are magnificent. Nov 4th
17 Nov 18 Comment As a nature photographer, I do not require bird beauty to reflect homo sapiens' tastes. To me, this is a beautiful animal, though perhaps with a face only a mother could love, and it is excellently presented. Nov 3rd
17 Nov 18 Comment Dramatic colors and characters. So exemplary of how India (and other cultures around there) can make beauty from simple scenic elements. Fowl play is a great addition. Nov 3rd
17 Nov 18 Comment This is great. I love the guy and his scene. I have to believe the tent houses a latrine. Can't imagine any other use for it. Really appealing human interest image. Thanks. Nov 3rd
17 Nov 18 Comment Excellent result with an HDR technique. Good that not much motion was at work in the scene. Not sure how much sky is required for the best presentation but it works well. Pleasing. Nov 3rd
17 Nov 18 Comment Great sharpness and composition on this image, John. Good angle and sense of action. Nov 3rd
