The Story Behind the Shot

Big Bend is one of the most remote places in the continental United States. Getting there is half the adventure. After hours of driving through endless desert, you wonder if you'll ever find this legendary place. This Big Bend National Park photography print was born from one of those perfect moments. I rounded a bend and was stopped in my tracks by this incredible view.

What makes this shot special isn't just the road leading straight toward the Chisos Mountains. It's the rare moodiness captured on camera. It had been raining all day, which is unusual for a place that gets less than 12 inches of rain per year. The rain created dramatic clouds that covered the mountain peaks. The damp road, the moody sky, and those iconic Chisos pushing into the clouds create something extraordinary.
