ESA – Day1pm1

Heading down the hill I thought I wanted to go south. Once in the flats and looking around, I said let’s go north. Then a second later I said, “Nope, let’s go south.” Then I looked north again and said, “Keep heading south!” Having been in an area for 50yrs and exploring it during every time of day and season and with a little sixth sense on weather helps in instances like this when the heavens open up.

Western movie buffs will recognize this place from such classics as True Grit and Nevada Smith. The Hot Springs are a favorite locale WHEN the heaven are full of drama which today, they sure were. This is a 7 image HDR to pull off the range of light, especially the god beams.
