Lost Mesa at Sunset
Here is one from New Mexico. This is a huge literally unknown area of desert grasslands in southern New Mexico.

It is an area that there is a push underway to make it a National Monument. I recently worked with the Coalition for Otero Mesa to write up an article for them on saving the area that was ran in a few newspapers in the region. This image was one of the ones included in the piece.

Great image of an undervalued landscape Darren. Enjoyed the reading too - well-written. Good luck with the efforts to preserve it.

Nice pastel colors, good lines and texture.

I also like the depth contained in this photo.

Your usual good work.
