Tule Springs Magic

I love 'em, love 'em, love 'em! Seana and Lils met me today at Tule Springs in North Las Vegas (pronounced too-ey), a spot that barely reminds me of anywhere near here. It's actually... sort of... Nebraska-ish. These natural springs were visited by large prehistoric mammals in an era when the southern Nevada area was much cooler and wetter. Fossil remains of extinct mammoths, bison, horses, camels, giant sloths and other animals have been found in Tule Springs.

...and here's flapper Lils! I used the "collodion" action from Florabella, then added the frame on pixlr-o-matic.

Red Rock Gypsies

I photographed the adorable Corinna and Kyler this morning out at Calico Basin, near Red Rock just outside of Las Vegas. The whole area out there is soooo beautiful, and photoing these two cute girls was a blast. Five more shoots tomorrow, and a few over the weekend, then they'll send me packin' back to Nebraska. Vegas is making me want to stay a little longer.
