Big Bend National Park


A scenic shot from last years trip to Big Bend National Park. This was taken while hiking the parks "Lost Mine Trail" in June of '08. It's a 4.8 mile round trip hike, with an elevation change of several thousand feet, rated as "medium difficulty." For a fifty year desk worker, I would have rated it as "YIKES!"

I know what you are talking about--except you need to add 10+ years to your number!

I like the unusual focus of the image--the tree branches rather than the mountain. It gives this one a different look. Nice shot because you did something different.

Keep it up!

Cool shot Larry!

I like this technique of placing the main subject out of focus!

Cheers!
