Vertical photograph of light snow on desert mountainside. The mountain face appears quite steep, with sparse pinon pines higher up, hints of craggy outcrops in the middle, and erosional patterns low. The snow thins and stops along a horizontal band 2/3 of the way down. Below snowline, the slopes appear dark brown and barren. The scene is lit by just a touch of pale yellow directional sunlight, which emphasizes the folded gullies of the mountainside.

Photograph of bare winter elm trees under luminous fog. The elm branches are whitened with hoarfrost and seem to glow in the light breaking through. Behind them are steep, rugged mountain slopes, almost entirely snow-covered. At the base of the trees can be glimpsed irrigation wheel lines with low ranch buildings behind. The bottom of the scene is a bright flat snowy field, and the top melts into luminous foggy cloud.

Lifting storm, bright fog

Image of wildflowers blooming in a desert landscape. A bunch of golden flowers dominates the foreground, with a couple orange California poppies visible, as well as numerous dark purple lupines sprouting from stony spaces between the desert shrubs. Behing the flora is a longer view to a mountain ridge and a desert lake playa, which is illuminated by a spotlight of warm sunshine. The sky is full of subtly lue and white cloud cover.

A hook shaped ridge of salt deposits amidst dry grasses; a desert dry lake playa is visible further away, with mountain ridges on the horizon under a fan of gently golden sunrise clouds.

This desert playa was the heart of my world for five years, maybe still is. It's also endemic toad habitat.

A desert ranch forms a patch of green at the bottom of a barren valley ringed by snowy mountain slopes

Just wondering, surely there are some other folks affiliated with Deep Springs College on Bluesky? Searching hashtags yields nothing relevant, so I'm putting something out there.
