Default Sunkissed desert hills in Nevada.

Driving through Nevada this morning, I came across this scene. I hopped out of my rig and with the sun rising on my back and me standing in a little ditch, I snapped away. I thought this one came out best. Thought I would share it.

Exposure: 0.006 sec (1/160)
Aperture: f/4.2

Thanks for looking.

Wow, such rich colour! What a peaceful (and probably quiet?) place to be. Morning shots are always great. TFS.

Stunning shot. Really like the way the palms (?) provide a natural border to the desert and hills.
