    It’s looks like a place my 13 year old son wants to explore. He really likes trails.

    Oh, I love the path! I’d love to take a walk around the bend to check it out, too. What a great shadow shot for the day! Have a great weekend!

    Is there really an answer to that riddle? Perhaps the answer is-as many as it takes!
    Judging by the quality of the morning light in this image, I’d say that you are the early riser! Gorgeous shot.

    One…or more. A whole journey might be one long path or many short ones…hm…I like the idea of many short ones make one long…Happy Sunday!

    I bet a big burst of rain could turn this into a briefly flowing stream!

    The sunlight on the ridge seems to point the way round the bend.

    Of course, straight and boring can lull us into an accident as our boredom gets the better of us. So crooked and eccentric pathways keep us very alert!

    I sure wish I was on that path right now with my camera rather in bed with Montezuma’s Revenge the kids so kindly gave me at school. Thank goodness I have Mon and Tues off for teacher work days. When there are no students i do not have to come. That is the nice part of being the retired English teacher who keeps the in-school suspension room. Am on prednisone, 2 types of inhalers, a cough medication. I waited way too long to go to the doctor and came too close to the pheumonies for my liking. genie

    Whatever path you take, a shadow will go with you.

    Wonderful depth of shadow with a fringe of sunlight! And adore the question with its inherent “dare to answer” undercurrent!

    Wow, I want to walk up that wash or creek bed or whatever it is. Intriguing photo.

    I absolutely love this photo. The shadows against the cloudy sky are wonderful and the path leading to an unseen destination gives it a bit of a mysterious feel. The path looks to be sand, so I am guessing it leads to water. Great Job!!!
