I thought I’d put together a best of post featuring my idea of my best photographs of this recently completed mega-roadtrip. In 14 weeks I visited Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, California and Baja California, Mexico. What a trip! There are some star-scape shots that I’ll save for another post, but these are essentially my favorites. Hope you enjoy them. Please don’t try to copy or download them from here. They are copyrighted. Click on an image to be taken to my website, and if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Thanks a bunch!
