Something I've been working on is choosing my aperture and focusing properly to get a large depth of field, so that everything from the ground in front of me to the background and sky is in focus, like you have in these photos. I usually shoot at 18mm, and I understand that helps. I've also been learning a bit about the hyperfocal distance. Do you have any techniques that you follow to get the depth of field right and your landscapes looking sharp? Thanks for sharing! Chris Great photos; what a cool spot!

All your work is outstanding- you are one seriously talented photographer. I found you through jpgmag.com, if memory serves (which it often doesn't). I saw your star trails technique, and plan on using it at some point...great stuff:) Absolutely gorgeous shots, Dan:) I have heard of this place; seen just a few other shots of it- apparently one needs to get permission to shoot there, it’s private property?
