This is one of my all-time favorite pictograph panels, and one of the reasons I originally became interested in rock art in the first place.

It took me a few tries to get something that I liked since I couldn’t use the viewfinder! I’m happy with the result 🙂
Pictographs & Stars
When I was camped at Peekaboo Spring in Salt Creek Canyon over Memorial Day weekend, I took the opportunity to take a few night shots of the nice pictograph panel found here when it got dark enough out.
Tiny Sheep
I’ve posted a photo of the Ascending Sheep panel before, but I was going through some of my photos from last year and came across this one that I hadn’t touched.

Behold! The Comet
Since I’m home this weekend, I decided to re-process a few photos that I took earlier last year since my techniques have improved greatly since then.
