Red Rock Canyon

By

A road leading into Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area in Clark County, Nevada on March 28, 2008.

The Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is located in the eastern part of the Mojave Desert. All though the area is known for the many red sandstone peaks and walls, visitors to the conservation area will also find over 600 different species of plants there. The most common being the joshua tree and several forms of yucca plants.

While hiking the trails of the conservation area, a variety of animals can be spotted.  Lizards, ground squirrels, rabbits, and various birds are frequently seen.  On occasion, bighorn sheep can be seen on the cliffs above the conservation area.

ABOUT

Ever since I borrowed a camera from a friend of mine eight years ago, I have loved sharing what I see through the lens of my camera with the world. There is nothing better than making somebody feel like they were right there with you. A brief moment in time, by way of photography, can say so much. I hope that these brief moments in time point people in the direction of someplace, something, or someone that they may not be aware of, and that they are curious enough to go see for themselves.
