The sudden shock of being confronted with the expanse of the plains — I saw this picture — well, one like it — while driving north on Day 3 and made a note to take a picture on the return trip, except I couldn’t find the exact viewpoint I’d found, which is a shame because it was a much better composition. Oh well, this photograph will have to do.
Plains and mountains — Seen from Hwy 24, Colorado. The Rocky Mountains are striking, but the unexpected plains between them took my breath away. Driving across the plains for miles and miles was humbling.

Ocean City Beach. Maryland — Looking south, commercial development ceases abruptly.
Commercial Development II — I changed position, and this works a lot better at showing the development without the hotel getting quite as much attention.
Commercial Development — This wasn’t meant to be a picture of this hotel. I was more interested in how commercial development dominates the environment and how the buildings seem to run forever along the coast. +1
