  • Learn more at f4roadtrip.com My stalker shows up at a Vegas meetup and becomes entirely inappropriate with my face. Uncle Grumpy gets jizzy over the lights of Vegas and Thomas tries to emulate the locals. Nick teaches us all how to chug and one very haughty bighorn sheep has a major diva moment during my last desert photo shoot. Landscape photography has never been weirder.
    Please note that all footage was filmed before COVID-19 hit the news in the western hemisphere.

    I loved the scene with the talking bighorn sheep. And you said, "the sheep here are nothing like the ones in Scotland." Right on! Priceless.
    And then there's your stalker. Listen Gavin, any woman bold enough to have a leg tatoo like hers has got to have something going for her besides just looks. She's quite, how to put it, easy on the eyes. Maybe it's time to just give in and enjoy. LOL Welcome back, Amanda.

    Well Gavin...not only are you a talented photographer, a brilliant comic, a great double act with Adam, a Brit, but also it would seem (possibly for the second time?) an impersonator of the wonderful Johnny Morris (Animal Magic). What a rich childhood we had...in the UK.

    We've been to the Valley of Fire last September and stayed on the campground. We couldn't breath even at night because of the freaking heat there. But the landscape is fantastic and i will return to the valley again. We had the same blue sky as you, but it's fun shooting there anyway. I like your pic of the little cave and the composition despite the "boring" blue sky. Photographers habe to deal with every situation and you did well! Cheers...

    I go to Vegas quite a bit, but rarely get to the strip. The desert surrounding is beautiful and the sunrise light amazing but the air is pretty dusty now. This time of year some of the valleys fill with fog in the mornings, shooting there is always a challenge, I’m taking the infrared camera next trip. You missed the clouds and rain and screaming winds by a couple of days, you got lucky 😄 beautiful shots as well.

    How about a week long valley of fire workshop! A scoutingshop maybe? Get the group campsite reserved and spend whole days nerding out in the area.
    There's another area called the bowl of fire that's a bit to the south of those mountains you were talking about. As near as I can tell it's completely unmolested by photographers, everything I've seen is from hikers.

    A tilt shift lens is a really underrated solution at times like these, it would have saved scratching the top of your camera and you could still have used the viewfinder. Shifting sideways can also get angles you might otherwise not reach. The Samyang 24mm is a gem and they even do a Sony version!

They are quite impressive and you will wish you had spent more time exploring the parks. There is also other sites not far away like the Walk Through Time Park where there are dinosaur fossils right along the path. I spent a 5 days in the area and it was far too little time.
