An unusual challenge for sure! From 2006-2020, my adventure companion was this 2006 GMC Canyon. It was perfect for me - 4x4, short wheelbase, and a 6 foot bed with camper shell that I could sleep in.

This is the 2250 megawatt coal fired power plant in Page Arizona. You made have seen it when you visited Antelope Canyon. It was big and nasty. It closed in 2019 and the 775 foot tall (236m) smokestacks came down in 2020. 665nm Infrared Converted Nikon DSLR.

In Old English, people called daisies "day's eye" because the petals close at night and open with the morning sun.
This wild flower was found along the Oregon Coast, I thought it looked the prettiest of all the examples I had to choose from to photograph.
Thanks Jim. It's a very well known spot, maybe I could start making hats shaped like the rock and tree. I could then use the proceeds to finance future photographic endeavors! Thanks for the idea! Talley Ho!
Here, again, is my favorite tree in Zion National Park. This Pinion Pine lives on the East Zion Plateau at around 6000 feet in elevation. Not only does the tree itself have a shapely figure, but it is also situated in an extremely photogenic location amidst the soaring sandstone walls. 665nm...
