I went back to Red Rock Canyon, Las Vegas, Nevada this morning for first light - I think I found the only patch of wildflowers in all of Southern Nevada this year!
I haven’t made it to the Strip yet - I’m thinking I will wait until the weekend visitors are gone and try photographing down there tomorrow.
We now have a section on our website of Red Rock Canyon Photos.
Captured with a Canon tilt / shift lens.
I had to get up at 4:30 this morning to be at this spot by first light - I think it was worth it. It is hard to believe a place as nice as Red Rock Canyon can be found so close to the Las Vegas Strip - talk about two different worlds!
We are now in Las Vegas enjoying the warm weather. Our Mojave travels were not productive for photography. We didn’t see any baby quail in an area we had seen dozens a year ago. Right after our trip a year ago, the area was burned by a wildfire. Thanks to fire damage and drought, we found very little wildlife this year. We may have been a week too early as well. (more…)

I thought the most interesting part of our NASCAR experience was the day we spent at the new Neon Garage area on the practice and qualifying day, where we were able to watch the drivers and crews up-close - much closer then I ever imagined. (more…)
The closest thing to a NASCAR race that I have ever attended would have to be the Iditarod sled dog race. Since we were generously given tickets to the Las Vegas race, we had to take a look at what has become a huge cultural phenomena. And it was a great chance to grab some photos. (more…)
