Desert Storm

Okay – back to hanging out the window again….but this is the best story I have. You gotta read this….Driving home from Laughlin Nevada last Saturday I was so excited to see that there was a storm brewing. I of course rolled down my window – readjusted my seat belt to have my camera strap safely anchored in the car and cranked the heater….I couldn’t believe the beauty of the desert while we were flying past on the freeway. I guess another photographer felt the same way but he must not have known about the hanging out the window trick..he stopped his car and was taking pictures of this breathtaking view…as we drove past him he looked over at me and started laughing….I wonder if he captured the same beauty that I did. lol…...I wish he would have taken my picture….

I so can see you hanging out the window with your camera secured LOL..What a great shot too..may have given the stopped photog an idea for the future LOL
Carol Barona replied

It was so funny Kat, I wish he would have taken my picture….the look on his face was priceless. It took him a moment to realize what I was doing but when he did the smile just broke out across his face. I gave him a thumbs up and started cracking up…Thanks so much!
