Gorgeous as always. It looks a tad too saturated, but that may just because its a small image.

Thank you. Predawn shots like this capture the richness of color that appeals to me.

There probably is some weirdness in the color because of the tiny size.

Not your best work, but hey at 8000 post they can't all be in the top ten.

BTW - Reminds me of a long hike in Joshua Tree were I was lucky I had a tall girl with me that could apparently see in the dark as I hung off her shoulder completely guided back to the truck and nutrition/sleep.

Thanks Shea. This shot was cooked up for my photo tour page of the Mojave Preserve north of Joshua Tree. Not always my best ever, but the best I can do at the time. There's a lot of desert out there.

It's really wierd, I've never used a flashlight for hiking at night out there (although I do keep one in my backpack). The human eye is a wonderfully adaptable device.
