Artist's Comments

Saturday morning I left for Palo Duro Canyon at 4 in the morning.
It stormed like crazy for the first two hours of my drive.
When I found this sign the sun had just started to come out
and it was still pretty early. I had to walk a way up the side of a train
track as there was no road to this sign. The way the sun was lighting
up the sign and the field was amazing. The red dirt, bright green grass
and rust color of the sign were stunning with the sun shining on them.
This picture doesn't quite do justice to the scene...but it's close. The
discoloration on the sign isn't PS errors....it's just the sign's true state.

Holy crap Melissa! This is just pure beauty!!

I wish the red dirt was a little more red/orange. :( But other then that, this is awesome, especcially the rustic discolorisation on the sign.
