Model not on PP

I very rarely photograph landscapes, and even more seldom photograph 'nudes in nature', but I'm willing to try almost anything a few times.

I took the opportunity to photograph a model in the Valley of Fire, NV, a beautiful location around 90 minutes north of Las Vegas. Unfortunately, being July, the temperature when we arrived was over 109° Fahrenheit (around 43° C), and we ended up with a much shorter session than originally planned; neither of us were prepared for the heat.

The colors were spectacular, but I was unable to make them at all believable in a photograph. The location must be seen to be believed, and I recommend it to anyone interested in otherworldly rock formations.
