Exiting Titus Canyon
Steep walls rise hundreds of feet above the narrow road following an ancient stream bed through Titus Canyon. Good thing this is a one way road.

Ghostly Cyclist
An outdoor sculpture garden has grown over the years on the outskirts of the ghost town of Rhyolite. A low angle let me crop out a car and some people in the background.
