Red Rock Canyon, Nevada - 09.06.2008

Here are some photos from my trip to Vegas last week:

Turtlehead Peak:

Some crazies climbing the backside of a rock out of the sun:

Yes, there is plant life in the desert:

What's so interesting?

Apparently I'm what's interesting in this photo:

Yup, I PP'd the heck out of this one to see what I could do with an overexposed photo:

I went there during the week for work, but stayed the weekend with some friends from back when I lived there.

It was an awesome trip.

I like the lizard pic.

So for pics like the Turtlehead Peak, can a gradient filter be used to add some depth to the sky? Not slamming your pic, but it looks flat, as mine often do in similiar pics - is it best to go the filter side or do it in Photoshop?

That's a really good question. I honestly don't know. My photography skills haven't progressed that far as of yet.
