| A Study of Mud Bay This group of six pictures was selected to convey the desolation and bareness of the Mud Bay area. This area is passed by thousands a day on their way to work yet likely never seen. It is hoped that the images when taken together will instill a sense of amazement at the unknown that is so close at hand. |

It was a fun hike and well worth the effort, now I need to go back to do the other two! |
