The backdrop of the Superstition Mountains made this shot. I was disappointed at the poor weather conditions at the time, but as I look back now, it made for an interesting shot with the mist on the mountains. They are a bit creepy to begin with, so this just adds to the mystique!
This was just about the last stop on our SW trip before our late evening flight back to Detroit. A great trip it was, and quintessentially American.
Hesperia woodgatei
Doeskin Ranch Unit, Balcones Canyonlands NWR, Burnet Co., TX
A very rare, local, and poorly-known species. I've been looking for this species around Austin for two years, and finally found two different individuals at Balcones Canyonlands NWR in the past week.
The Apache Railway in eastern Arizona has fallen on hard times with the closing of a paper mill, its primarily source of traffic. The railway is home to a small fleet of well-maintained Alco locomotives, which has long been a favorite with train aficionados. Today, however, the railway operates over its 38-mile main line to Holbrook only about once a week. March 1, 2016, was one of those days as Alcos 99 and 81 approach the State Route 377 crossing just outside Holbrook on the return trip to the terminal west of Snowflake. The first four cars are hog feed en route to a feedmill at Mile 16. The rest of the 21-car train are empty gons for the shop for cleaning. Photo by Joe McMillan.

I have been going through my old archives and forgot i had this one. I have many photographs (1000s) from my times out in Afghanistan. But this is the only one i will show, for personal reasons.
This is a bush type and can get to some size - had passed this on one of my walks - I thought pretty but didn't now at the time the name of it - while in New Mexico recently is when I discovered it's name.
