Dirt roads make for such great subjects. There's no two alike, though all convey a sense of adventure and nostalgia. This evening was cold, windy and magical. The winter storm broke just enough to let this amazing golden light through. Those colors, the long shadows, the layers of cloud and sky -- while I would love this scene on any other occasion, it came alive under these conditions. It hold so much of what I love about the Mojave desert.
