Sweeping through the Desert

I love a sweeping road around a desert landscape. The yellow lines just add so much to the image. This was in the Joshua Tree Forest in the Arizona Mojave desert, 2021.

We didn't get too far from the skywalk before the landscape opened up into this very inviting photographic opportunity. Joshua Tree Forest in the Arizona Mojave desert. 2021.

An arrow straight desert highway is just as inviting as a sweeping one. This, the former, presented an amazing site in northern Arizona. Joshua Tree Forest in the Arizona Mojave desert. 2021.

There are just so many opportunities to get these sunset silhouettes in Joshua Tree Forest. I could've spent hours making this drive back down to the main highway in northern Arizona. 2021

Dolans Springs Sunset

Cactus trees at sunset in Dolans Springs, on the Joshua Tree Forest, Arizona. I had so wanted to capture a silhouetted shot of a Joshua Tree against the setting sun. Despite the plentiful opportunity, the best chance was down near the end of this long road from the skywalk. 2021.

Tumbleweed Market

Everyone understands the connection with tumbleweed and the desert, so I would imagine this market grabs the attention of many sightseerers' here. Sunset in Dolans Springs, on the Joshua Tree Forest, Arizona. 2021.
