Desert Horses

Welcome to my horse blog, Desert Horses. We live in the desert southwest, near Palm Springs, CA, but board our horses up in our local mountains where it is cooler in the summer. I have 4 horses, all rescues. Here is the ranch up the mountains where the horses stay.

Moon over mountain~SkyWatch Friday 022511


I took this photo right outside my house early last Sunday morning, the morning after a snowstorm came through our local mountains. I was anxious to get out and take photos, so I headed up the mountain toward the horse ranch. I knew I wouldn't be able to make it all the way (chains were required) and hubby wanted to drive over to Joshua Tree National Park. SkyWatch Friday for February 25, 2011.

Great capture! It's usually very difficult to get clear photos of both the moon and the surrounding landscape.
