 It's been a long time since I used a tele for a landscape. View is from the Santa Ana Mountains (well, foothills) looking Northeast. Storm had just passed through the San Bernardino Mountains. Backyard 4th of July BBQ at a friends house. A beautiful sunset

Don't miss the airplane..

Well, trust you to get a far away focus-point that has the effect of being blurred. Well done.

I like the idea this portrays. We really are tiny by comparison. Nicely done.

great vertical shot....sense of distance.....good in black and white...ya I've often looked at planes and it's odd to think there are people inside who have lofty ideas and demanding personalities along with issues, anxieties, joys, hopes, dreams, babies, lovers etc......they seem insignificant from so far away....wish alot would disappear with a plane like that! MOTHER NATURE IN HER FINEST....GREAT SHOT!

Oops, thought you were going to enter the color one! Stunning image nonetheless (although this is one of those rare cases I like the color better).
