Yes! You desert rat photogs have some excellent pics here.

You typically embrace the mundane, which is all you have to work with, at least from the viewpoint of many uninformed city-dwelling types: to you boys the weed is a florist shop, a rock a jewel, a lizard is just a lizard, though--ain't no dragons...

So prove me wrong.

here's something a little different. I went out to Joshua Tree to do some night shooting and the clouds rolled in. Here's a picture I took around 2 am. The light pollution from Palm Springs is bouncing off the bottom of the clouds and with a 30 second exposure this is what the camera sees. I did flash the foreground trees for a few seconds with a xenon flashlight. No photoshop monkey business here.
