Down the Eastern Sierras

4:49 PM

I try to spend some time out on the Alabama Hills any time I take a drive down the Eastern Sierras. This was my first time in the summer. I'm so used to the Spring and Fall, when the temperatures changes and moisture in the air creates swirling wonders in the sky. Alas, this time no obstructions hindered the long light streaming through the parched air. Nor a moon in the sky to dim the lights of the milky way. So on my single evening in the Hills I used what I could in my compositions and slept peacefully amongst the quiet rocks.

My Truck and the Milky Way.

The sun setting behind the mountains.

The rising sun dusts the tips of the highest peaks... Mt Whitney.
