    I went to the Black Rock desert in Northern Nevada and took some shots, I am very pleased with this shot, I feel the 4 hour drive round trip was worth it.

    First shot looks a little out of focus, but still composed well.

    DSC_3515.
    NIKON D200    ---    22mm    f/2.8    1/250s    ISO 100


    I think that is the best of them all.


    Very nice car, I've hit 160 once, it is definitely quick :)
