Above: Thompson Pass looking toward Moab. If you look close you can see Crescent Junction and State Highway 191. This is from the base of the Book Cliffs looking South. The road is a nice little side trip if barren landscape, boulders and the occasional Antelope is your thing (it’s mine). I read that somewhere along the Book Cliffs a Tar Sand extraction operation is starting up. Mixed feeling on that. Anyone know the exact location? I’d like to do a before and after shot if it’s lot to late.
Lovely photo, Andrew!

lovely shot, so much depth and colour to this photo!
This is gorgeous, any chance you’d be willing to sell me a print? I’d love to hang it in my home. heidikinsblog [at] gmail [dot] com.

great shot
It is the texture, really, that makes desert shots so engaging.
Beautiful and sad.
On of those places that your mind keeps a photo of, even without a camera, nice! beebeesworld
Nice … the road just invites the viewer into the picture.
Great shots and blog
