No wonder why NASA chooses the southwest for testing of their spacecrafts…
Meanwhile in the middle of a sunny day, a severe dust storm sweeps through the Totem Pole area with winds of 50+mph… visibility was extremely poor, time to run to the car.
Thank you for your feedback!

How The West Was Won by DaniloFaria

Yes, the Navajo Native is real, he is posing, and he is holding a real rifle!!! If you have been to this location you would understand, he “charges” a fee to stand still in this location so people can take an image of this “western scene”, made famous by the movie director John Ford. Someone else paid and I “hitchhiked” and took the picture as well.

The Wall by MikeOlbinski

Finally captured a decent haboob a few days ago south of Phoenix! Been a slow year on the big dust storm front, so this was such a treat, especially as we are nearing September already and potentially winding down the season soon.

This is a 12-image panoramic taken along Riggs Road…the time-lapses are pretty cool, but I am involved in a special project so I wont be able to show them until that’s figured out…but at least one will appear in my film Monsoon II.
