in the 40 mile desert in Carson sink, there are hundreds of graves that litter the white salt playa and the hills around natural springs. Very often they are children or elderly victims of pioneers that succumbed to disease or other factors. There are actually Shoshone indian graves as well, but they are unmarked and often are uncovered when the ground water level is diminished a bit and the soils give up what might lay in them. I have seen human remains in the Stillwater area but I wont touch them, they are sacred to the Paiute/Shoshone tribe, even though they might be thousands of years old.
The Newlands river project literally changed the entire eco balance here and forced dramatic changes in water distribution, destroying habitats and forcing native indians out of the area. Guns, Germs and Steel have made some permanent changes everywhere in the west, and they are profound here.

Sunsets are amazing. Thought the comment about the Loch Ness monster was funny until I read what it actually was o_0 .. kinda strange. But cool pics! Photography is awesome.

I like the 3rd one, I think the grave gives it a kind of an art feel to it, more than just a pic of the sky, a lonely guy kinda feel, I think it would be better if the grave wasn't so far off and miniscule. Am I weird and macabre for what I just said or does someone else agree with me.

I often discard shots like these because I dont get the transformation immediately, it takes a little time to feel the shot again. I am glad you like it.
