Jerry,

Nice views from Quivira, but they are very small.  Any chance of seeing larger versions.

Hi Doug,

I think you can just click on the "Zoom" to see larger frames.

Many really nice shots here. There are perhaps a bit too many similar images; I'd try to cut down a bit, so that you don't fall into the same trap that I did with my cloudscape/sunrise/sunset images (http://folk.uio.no/jani/hobbies/photo/clouds/).

I'm not a fan of the super-saturation, which in many cases leads to posterization of your images. You can still get vibrant and rich colours at a lower saturation level. And to be honest, some of the scenes are wonderful. Well captured, they really make me want to go there.

You might also want to take the time to clean your sensor and fix up a few of the images to get rid of the annoying dust specks.
