Looking back over the archives and came across these I took at Big Bend. A lot of almost good shots. I see so much that I would have done differently with the knowledge I now have. LOL

Big Bend National Park

These scenes from Big Bend National Park were taken about a year ago.  I've been fooling around with tone adjustments:  Let me know what you think.

The Window

Casa Grande

Santa Elana Canyon

Rainbow Casa Grande is one of the most recognizable mountains in Big Bend. Casa Grande Again The Lost Mine Trail is one of my favorite hikes. This is what the family looks like when the peak is achieved. Rest Most folks who have been to Big Bend have seen "The Window." Here's what it looks like from the bottom. Window 1 Window 2 Those folks at the top are my friend Mike and his wife. I didn't even know he was in the park until I yelled for his email address and recognized it!

Big Bend is one of my favorite National Parks. I love the mix of desert and mountain and the fact that in July you can walk all day without bumping into another soul. These photos were taken early one morning on a trail called Grapevine Hill. It's a nice walk in the morning before the desert heat takes effect.
