Welcome to the home page of “Desert Wind Images.” This is a website that is devoted to landscapes…
I am a photographer who captures images of the great American southwest with lots of emphasis on Colorado, Arizona and Utah as well as many other locations. My photos are images of popular geologic locations as well as more remote places.
The national parks and monuments I frequently visit in this area are: Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Monument Valley, Organ Pipe Cactus N.M., Petrified Forest, Canyonlands, Arches, Lake Powell, Saguaro, Death Valley and many, many places in between.
I hope to share the wonders of the great southwest with all who wish to browse a few photos of this magnificent place.
Typical sightings on a photo trip through the desert:- A dove with its head buried in a saguaro cactus flower…
- A butterfly preoccupied with a barrel cactus flower…
- A motionless jackrabbit in the shade of a saguaro…
- A coyote meandering by pretending not to notice…
- An occasional sunset that is not of this world…
- An irritated rattlesnake just four feet away…
- A noisy Kangaroo rat around midnight…
- Hawks riding thermals…
- The merciless sun…
Other recent experiences…- Hiking in the Sonoran Desert in the summer battling those pesky black gnats…
- Camped in the mountains of southwest Colorado near tree line in late September
and nearly freezing to death…- Experienced extreme dehydration during a hike on the north side of Lake Powell
in August after running out of water…- Blisters from a seven-mile hike across steep Navajo sandstone…
