New from Nick Meek: Somewhere over Nevada

Taken from photographer Nick Meek’s blog Make Good Time, these images were shot somewhere over Nevada…

“I was flying back from Los Angeles three weeks ago when I spotted these amazing landscapes. Unfortunately I couldn’t get to my camera in time but as luck would have it another job came in that had me shooting back in L.A the following week. To my surprise the light and cloud cover was exactly as I remembered it. I think we were somewhere over Nevada.”
