About this photograph

Out on a desert road as the sky turned pink. Just enough dust in the air to catch the light instead of blocking it. The desert has a completely different energy than the coast. I was drawn to the leading lines of this rugged dirt road disappearing into the mountains, perfectly contrasted by the soft, sweeping pink clouds of a Mojave sunset. A statement piece for the modern explorer.
