Mojave Desert Photography: El Paso Mountains-a landscape photographer's dream...

....because you never know when an unexplored trail will treat you to a fantastic view.  

As usual, when taking landscape photographs, my camera is set to the "Aperture Priority" mode.  Maximum depth of field is the goal, here.

I used a polarizing filter here.  The polarizing filter renders the blue sky and white clouds more pronounced.  I prefer to perform the majority of my photo editing when I take the photograph.

1/80th sec. @ f/20.
