Soon there won't be any open water in the canyon system.

I had no idea that the Russian Olive would take over like that, I guess all they need is some water. The photo below was taken around 20 years ago and there isn't a Russian Olive in sight.

Randy,

I have only done a few test pieces up to 24x30, but it will easily go as wide as my printer which means I can do a 44x56 (I think that is what it works out to.) Jim

I was just curious. I think it would look great, in large sizes. Some images need room.

btw, I love your homeland, we used to have a place near North Freedom.

I’ve been watching this tree take over canyon country for many years. Its yellow flowers are very pretty in the spring, and its autumn fruit is enjoyed by all kinds of birds. However, it’s so hardy, so successful – and spreads so easily – that we should all start saying goodbye to the native Cottonwoods and Willows that are being out-competed along canyon washes and creeks. These images are a great illustration of the on-going changes.

Very nice picture, I love the mood it conveys.

Thank you. The sky really was that strange and dramatic. It started snowing not long after this!
Here's a picture I took with my phone, just in case people didn't believe it: :)

Wow. Powerful and ethereal at once. Outstanding!
