Description

I visited Ghost Ranch last week with my 2 sons and some friends. It was overcast which kind of dulled the beauty of this place. My son's girlfriend was nice enough to pose on top of Chimney Rock to add some flavor to the shots. One can feel a real spiritual connection with this place which inspired me to add the eagle(very spiritual and inspirering bird). Those of you who have been in the SW know what I'm talking about. That's part of the reason why I moved from Florida to New Mexico. Thanks for viewing and comments. Enjoy Today =o])

Beautiful composition and postwork. It looks like quite a hike to get up there. And I'm sure before long we will be seeing some of those "125 mile visibilty" shots!

Spiritual capture indeed! Superb composition here Ray! I like how the Eagle seems to be emminating from the walking stick. They sort of resemble each other to me as well!
