Entering Death Valley

[Jim Dockery]

My wife and I are just finishing up a month long trip in our new truck camper. We started in Lake Stevens WA, stopped in Bend OR for a bit of X-skiing, then headed down to Death Valley with a couple days in The Alabama Hills. More adventures in AZ and UT followed.

I haven't had time to process many RAWs shot with my Sony A7rII, so many I'll start with will be iPhone 11 Pro shots I've been grabbing to shave via text with family and friends.

A7rII. I'm not normally into road shots, but liked how all the lines came together.

100-400mm

Nice to see some shots from your adventures!

Hard to go wrong with road shots down in that area since you can see so may miles of the roads at once. Familiar looking desert in both images.

Jim... I can’t even comment on your photos yet... all I can say is I am so glad you are back!!! We have missed you so much here, a month is too long for you to be away!

Sounds like a fun trip Jim. Must have a treasure trove of images to keep this forum humming for a while.

So jealous! That first shot is awesome. I'm not used to the landscape out that way so I love seeing wide shots like this. Can't wait to see more.

Shaving via text...hm. How is that done, exactly?

Love that road shot Jim. Jan often has the camera up front with us to record our travels.

I am glad you are back, Jim. I have missed your images and look forward to the upcoming posts. This is a nice start.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I just got home last night after almost 5 weeks on the road. I've been working on my last set of images from The Wave, which was a truly spiritual experience for Debbie and I. More later.
