Work is fun, when you're sort of also vacationing...
I am fortunate enough to be in a position where I travel all over the Western US for work. I do contract work, so for the most part as long as I get my jobs done within the time window that is given to me, I can more or less create my own schedule. What I do a lot of is cramming in certain parts of the week in order to drive somewhere cool to take pictures or do some climbing for a couple days. This last November, I spent a lot of that free time in the Southwest, like New Mexico and Southern Utah. Here are some of my favorite images I captured during that time.
- Sunset in White Sands New Mexico. I always try to make it here when I am traveling through the area. I would really like to spend an overnight trip here at some point. You need to get a permit, but it should be pretty straightforward. I think catching a sunset and sunrise here back to back would be a very memorable experience.
- KOAs are a cozy reprieve from the normal hustle and bustle of a Wal-mart or Rest Area.
- I spent a night playing around with my flashlight and long exposures on some of the local desert fauna. It was super fun.
- This epic desert tower is on the Ute Mountain Tribal Park on the New Mexico Colorado border.
Very good photos and good work
Amazing Desert shots! Makes me want to go to New Mexico even more now!
NM is an incredible place!
