I was rummaging about in my wild west photo safari collection over the weekend and thought I might publish a few more pics, just to see how I (and others) received them. Sometimes, ya just have to step back and look at a picture from a distance - in space and time. So, here goes:

| Cabin on the high plains |
The tiny cabin with windmill floats on an ocean of west Texas prairie. There are no other structures in sight. Ageless, there's no telling when it was built, but I estimate it is pushing a century of years. On the good side, the nearest roadway is half a mile away, so the kids could play outdoors without fear of traffic. On the downside, the nearest rattlesnake was probably under the house.
Ssssssssssssssssssss!

| Twin Peaks, AZ |
These twin peaks are located somewhere in Arizona. I think they can be seen from western New Mexico since they have little competition in altitude and uniqueness. It is nigh impossible to get a good picture of a mountain. The massive scale is often lost in translation. Still I make the effort. Maybe one day...

| Derelict Cabin |
The cabin at right won the "Most Hopeless" award for nothern California. I would be surprised if it survived the heavy rain and snow that showed up right after I left. (Darn!) This one was on 101/1 before reaching the Shoreline Highway, I think.

Twisty Highway in the Forest
|
This picture is representative of the winding forest highway inland from the coast. Note the absence of shoulders on the road. Note the blur of scenery as I shot through the windshield. Sigh. I still like it, but it may never be sold. Maybe I can find a show for folks with naturally blurry vision?
