Thank you Marilyn and thank you for the kind comments John.
I could have spent hours along the Nevada interstate, photographing the vast desert scenery ... but husband insisted on pushing thru for home. At least I got him to slow down a little!

Great photographers are not great because of their technique; they are great because of their passion.
