I love it when the mountains almost look like they've been painted into the photo. Beautiful!

I like the haze. It makes the mountains look like they've been painted on the sky.

Sort of soft and delicate. I really like it. Saint Rita would be happy. Who is St. Rita anyway?

If I didn't mention it before; too lazy to go back and look if I commented - I really enjoyed the burrowing owl post.

Hi Kathie,

As usual, another great photo. Love the way that the hills fade into the background!

Have a good weekend

The backdrop has a really surreal haze. Beautifully done.

Blue, blue mountains. I love what the atmosphere and light does to color.

The haze causes the mountains to like like a mirage, or distant clouds.

Happy skywatch!

I like the colors that the mountains appear....all those blue shades. Pretty!

Those receeding mountains look mystical, and the foreground is so sharp-focus - such contrast!

Even the haze is pretty with your skills.

Such a painter's palette of blues - lovely. I guess the cooler weather brings softness to the sky and the mountains.

Linda said...

So many layers of hills rising up from the plain. Beautiful.

Are those creosote bushes? I love visiting Sycamore Canyon through your blog, Kathie.

What a majestic view you have! How beautiful. Also the mountains included in your previous post are spectacular in their many layers of tiints and shades.

Kathie, just wanted to let you know I'm tagging in a meme in a post I'm putting up a bit later this afternoon. Hope you can pop on over and join in if it works for you!

Ah, such a wonderful landscape photo. In fact, your blog is superb, what a treat for my weary eyes to view your wonderful photography.

I want to thank you very much for coming by when I have been so ill.
I really do appreciate it in ways you do not know. Your support is incredible and I want you to know that.
Thank you.
