Dził Bizhiʼ Ádiní (mountain whose name is missing). In 1872 the whites named it Henry Mtns (Utah). It was the last major range in the lower 48 to be named. Highest point is Mt. Ellen 3,512m (11,522ft). (Note: There's a couple of small ranges in Nevada that have not been named. Nevada has the most ranges of any state.) I've past by Dził Bizhiʼ Ádiní many times. I need to stop sometime. Reading Wikipedia, I see there's bison there!

Color landscape photo of a dirt road of packed brick red clay running from the lower left and disappearing after turning center frame toward the left, Sagebrush contrasts with the brick red clay filling the left cent to right side of the frame. At center left is an eroded sandstone fin. The left part looks like a wide sail and the right pinnacle looks like s smoke stack. On the right side at center frame is a mesa sticking out a short way into the frame. The features on the right and left frame a far distant snow covered mountain range. The sky is blue with wispy and puffy white clouds.

What Remains by Muhannad Shono Panorama, Desert X 2025, Coachella Valley, California

Muhannad Shono is known for his innovative exploration of identity, memory, and cultural heritage. His large-scale installations transform common elements such as plastic pipe, string, or sand into intricate systems. Drawing inspiration from the complexities of his upbringing in the Arabian Peninsula, Shono combines traditional techniques with modern forms to address themes of displacement, transformation, and the intersection of past and present.

The image depicts a panoramic view of a desert landscape under a clear blue sky. The foreground features a sandy terrain with sparse vegetation, including small bushes and shrubs scattered across the ground. The sand appears light-colored, with ripples and patterns created by wind erosion. In the midground, several triangular-shaped objects, possibly hammocks or tarps, are visible, adding a human element to the otherwise natural scene. The background showcases a range of mountains with snow-capped peaks, indicating a high elevation. The sky is a deep blue, with no visible clouds, suggesting a dry and arid climate. The overall composition emphasizes the vastness and isolation of the desert environment. Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B

Mexican Hat rock! I'm still trying to get a really good photo of it. One of these days things will line up with a low angle sun (I seem to always be there mid-day) and a pretty sky. I kind of like how in this shot the 'hat' stands out a bit due to the shadow on the hills in the background. Ooo, I just thought of an idea. I'll try shooting this under a full moon when I'm there later this month.

A color landscape photo of a brown-red sandstone formation that forms a hill in the foreground top with a balanced rock in the shape of a disk. The large hills and cliffs in the background are a tortured landscape of folded sandstone beds of brown-red and greys. The sky is a medium grey color from a heavy overcast.

“Canyon Narrows Light” — Soft, filtered light illuminates the walls of a Death Valley slot canyon.

Desert canyon light is remarkable. A canyon like this one is a huge contrast with the world outside — the intense, harsh desert light gives way to soft, gentle light and shade. The temperature drops. The color of the ight changes, too. Deep in the canyon it often shifts to ward blue, especially when the canyon walls are black or gray. There are also changes and contrasts where different softs of light come together — as in this photograph where the deeply shaded blue tones contrast with the warmer tones of the higher walls…continues: gdanmitchell.com/2025/04/02/ca
