Just so The Ute doesn't feel too lonely....
Maybe not as dramatic as the desert and canyons:
But if you like green, we do green pretty well here

Green is fine.

Can't you just post your images using a link from your web site?I just found out that I reached my quota for posting photos here so it looks like I won't be posting any more for a while.
Walking Stick at White Sands National Monument

Here is a 100% crop of the incredible sharpness of the walking stick insect from the above image:

Photographer's paradise. Enjoy it.
I cannot post using those types of links. Too complicated.
Eventually my quota will return. When it does I'll add more images.

The only thing more I'd say would be "wow". I bought a Merrill based on these threads but haven't been able to get out with it yet, hope to have something to add to the thread. I love your Southwest pictures, not sure what I can find in Maryland to even begin to compare...The Grand Canyon.
Not much more you can say.

Welcome to both of you newcomers.
Which Merrill did you purchase ?
Thanks for the compliment.
Much appreciated.
We used to have a guy around here from Delaware and he posted some very nice shots.
So being from a nearby state I bet you be able to do the same.

Not so much a landscape, rather more of a cityscape / suburbscape.
This is a stitched panorama taken with the DP2M from one of Wellington's many hill suburbs. The rare thing this day was that there was no wind, not even up here. That's something that doesn't occur often in a city slap bang in the middle of the roaring forties....

One thing I have noticed about the DP2M photos is the way it renders clouds - quite different from many other digital cameras. I can't explain what it is; maybe it's all in my imagination?

Nice shot. I lived in Auckland for a year. Wonderful country.
It is not your imagination.
I believe it has to do w the overall perfection of the DP2 lens sensor combo.
They are world class.
The resolution and micro detail lead to a very strong 3D-like quality.
It is not easily replicated.
These little Merrill's are a wonder. Nothing can really touch them for the price.
They are on a par w the D800E and new Sony A7r.
I'd estimate their effective MP rate at somewhere between 24 and 30 MP.
Pretty stunning.
I have 24 x 36 blowups that are perfect.
And remember the weight and price.
Apologies for the long post but I love raving about these cameras.
Here's some volcanic cones shot on a recent trip up north. The first two are on New Zealand's central volcanic plateau, the last is Rangitoto, a volcanic cone just off the coast of our largest city, Auckland. Shot with the DP2M.

Once again, I love the way the Sigmas render clouds and sky.
