A pretty famous stretch of road. There were many folks pulled over to the side to take photos. Some of the more adventuresome were lying on their backs on the center line of the highway, trying to get dramatic perspective. Anyway, I had to get some pictures as I drove this stretch of road, too.

Taken as our cruise ship entered the remarkable natural harbor of Acapulco, Mexico. We were on the Legend of the Seas in 2004, cruising through the Panama Canal from California.

Taken as we reached the summit of the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad. The line runs between Chama, New Mexico, and Antonito, Colorado. The summit is near 10,000 feet. The aspens (and others) were displaying remarkable colors. Some of the blur is the motion of the train, some of the blur is bokeh. For the Sunday Challenge, this is a nice way to enjoy the change of seasons. Winter will be along soon enough. At least the conifers in the background will stay green throughout the seasons.

The days around this photo op were marred by a lot of clouds in Quartzsite. However, the clouds helped make the sunsets and sunrises quite spectacular. Here are some crepuscular rays, the mountains near Quartzsite, and the clouds lit up. Taken with the Panasonic GX85 and processed with GIMP.
