Ok, well
sort of published, but still. =) The past five summers, I've worked at
Philmont Scout Ranch, in
Cimarron, NM. It's one of my absolute favorite places on Earth, and the source of
many of my favorite photos. There is an organization called the
Philmont Staff Association comprised of current and former staff members that exists to support the Ranch and the current staff, and to keep former staff in contact. They maintain a
website that has a photo masthead that changes with the season. The webmaster was looking for photos to use for this winter, so I submitted a few, and one got picked!
Here's the original:
(as always, click to embiggen!)And the screenshot of the page:
Woohoo! I am so excited! I took the photo, along with many others, when I visited the Ranch for New Years Eve 2006/2007. A huge snowstorm had shut down the state (literally) and so my travel plans were...well...slightly different than planned. Flights canceled, roads closed, hotels overbooked, etc. Luckily, when I finally made it, I was rewarded with some awesome scenery. It pays to persevere. =)
