This image was taken in the Big Bend State Park on a rainy morning the day after Thanksgiving, 2015. Volcanic ash and rocks create an interesting subject, especially when wet. Most of the volcanic activity was around 25 million years ago.

This image was taken in the Cantina part of the Contrabando Movie set just off Hiway 170, also known as River Road. Texas Parks and Wildlife Depart manages the property, and has decided to tear the set down, except for the Cantina. Several popular movies from the 1980's utilized this set, but time has taken a great toll on the structures, so they had to go. Not sure how much longer the Cantina will survive!

"The Passage" is an enclosed shopping area located in "Old Town" Omaha, Nebraska. The doorways lead to unique stores that offer a cooler shopping experience on a warm afternoon. This photo is a mosaic processed in PTGui and Lightroom 3.

The "Old Town" part of Omaha has brick streets and a lot of photo opportunities. This wall is part of an old building near "The Passage".

The Prince of Wales Hotel sits atop a lofty hill that jutts out into Waterton Lake about a half a mile North of Waterton Township, in Alberta Canada. The Canadian side of the NP is very scenic, and the off and on rain showers framed the mountains in a misty light that was accented by rays of brightenss as the clouds moved quickly in a strong wind.

At the top of the "Bear Tooth Highway", East of Yellowstone NP, this dramatic view of the the range can be seen. Bear Tooth Highway starts at the Eastern edge of Yellowstone NP, and runs fifty miles to Red Lodge Montana. There was no shortaqe of snow and beautiful clouds to make the trip even more eye quenching as we wound around the switchbacks to reach the summit at 10,900ft.

Yellow Mounds Badlands NP. This area has all the color that is to be seen from the overlooks. Perhaps if you hike the trails you'll find similar color in the formations elsewhere in the park.

The Lauritzen Botanical Gardens in Omaha, Nebraska is a really neat place to visit. I caught this bee on a purple cone flower by chance.

Mt Rushmore. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt and "Honest Abe" are lit up after the lowering of the flag ceremony each night to honor our country and some of the men that worked to make us great!
