Rushing through countryside
Filed in Arizona, Automattic, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Landscape, Nature, Photography, Photos, United StatesI shot this through the window of our car while driving back to the ranch after Automattic’s trip to Biosphere 2 in Arizona a few months ago.

I’m sure this is as boring as the flower pics everyone else posts for people who live in the desert but it’s all new to me! Black vignetting caused by a polarizer!

Bench and Wheel
Filed in Arizona, Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Photos, United StatesA decorative bench and wheel on the ranch in Arizona. I took so many shots of the place I’m still struggling to catch up and mark the ones I want to work on but I will eventually get to them. I suspect some may not see the light of day until next year though!
