Chisos Mountains
Contrabando
Ocatilla and candelaria on the Old Ore Road in Big Bend National Park are highlighed by the Chisos Mountains in the background.
No longer functional because of flood waters and neglect, this old village sat next to the Rio Grande and was a photographer's dream.
The soul of the world... the exit of the river at Santa Elena Canyon
Shear 1500 foot high cliffs form a narrow canyon towering above the Rio Grande River before the river suddenly bursts into the open plain of Terlingua Creek and the Rio Bravo.
