Thanks, very nice.

I have a nice Sony DSC-H9 Cybershot I bought a few years back that is 8 megapixels, but the pics are always kind of washed out and not vibrant.
But I also shoot it on automatic settings all the time too.
It is adjustable, but I do not know what I am doing if I try to change stuff.

Sweet! I used to work out here (long story) and know Mogollon, Reserve (or Reverse and folks call it) etc. Did you get to Snow Lake and Bearwallow?
This past weekend I traveled into the Gila with Jones, my GSD. Over the past few months, using 50 year old FS Maps and Google Earth, I patched a long route from Mogollion to Reserve. The route covered over 200 miles of OPEN roads that traversed everything from fern carpeted forest to high desert plains. I’m always amazed at what I still have to discover here.
The Gila provides thousands of miles of road by way of rugged and remote terrain. As help or assistance is rare in these parts, it’s advised to go well prepared. I drove over 200 miles without seeing anything but wildlife.

We did most everything in the original plans, and then some. The snowstorms and cold weather provided an ironic end to our long and brutal summer. While we spent most of our time in the mountains, in-between we sought refuge with the company of good friends, good brew, good food and a “one-off” tattoo parlor.
Stay Tuned...

Beautiful pictures but I want to know what the pictures look like before you enhance them. I want to get that camera you have but I need to know the actual picture itself. Post some more if you have them. Thanks for sharing.

“Enhancement” - Contrast adjustment and/or B&W conversion for some images
Could it quite possibly be talent?
