Our latest photo adventures bring us to a weekend in Death Valley. Something about the desert certainly speaks to me in an elusive yet vibrant way. Recently, I think I have been transitioning to appreciate things more minimally, and what a better example of minimalism than the desert? Something about the desert is utterly tranquil, the lavender skies blanket the distant faded grey blue hues of the mountain ridges. As empty as the landscape may seem, it brings a sense of calmness and helps me get away from our everyday nonsense. A lot of people question why I go camping so often, how troublesome it is and what the real gain is, so I hope these photos help to explain that.
