Description
took this 2-2004 at Red Rock out side of Vegas
hope your weekend will be to your liking and thanks for your comments
at one time there was a quarry here before the government made it a park. many of the stones used in old Vegas came from here.they hauled on wagons pulled by horse or mules

Poor horses and mules! I can understand why they used stones from there though, they sure are square arent they. Beautiful colors in this one Richard. Have a great weekend. #:o)

Cool looking shot my friend
the hand hewn sandstone blocks look like something from an Ancient Temple...the Temple of the One-armed Bandits ? haunting capture Richard Cheers

Pyramids in Nevada!! Aliens build casinos!!! Mules haul rocks to build Cat House for senators!!! Nice image Richard!! Love the tones and the palette!
What a beautiful but also quite dry looking desert area! Love the light shadow contrast here! Excellent shot! Thanks for it!!!
hey Richard ! wonderful stony view ;-) shot really rocks!
Love the image ... thanks for posting!
Where's the blackjack dealer?
Great photo- there is a real sense of the surreal in the deserts and canyons and you managed to capture it. Excellent!
That is a great picture--excellent find in the desert..just hope the mob doesn't encase people in the cement and dump it out there... "yeah, dats just dat quarry rock dere..dats all...why, it dont even LOOK like Jimmy Hoffa"
Stunning Image of Red-Rock! I keep saying I need to get out there one day! Maybe when it's cooler, like February? ;)
Nice shot! Great colours! It's hard to imagine that there is an old Vegas! so there's not only casinos in there? lol Bravo!!!
Fantastic photo of a very incredible place my friend........!!!!!
Agree with Zacko as I like animals! But place is interesting and photo excellent!!!
Damn those choices. When we were in Vegas a few weeks ago, we also wanted to explore the region around Vegas. We had to make a choice and decided to visit Valley of Fire State Park (photos to come in near future). But looking at above scenery... I'm afraid I have to return in future. Unfortunately I have to travel more than 6000 miles again... Thanks for sharing!
Impressive and savage place.
Beautiful landscape. If the boulders in the foreground are natural I can see why stones from this place were used as building materials - they're almost ready for use as is! Very nice!
I feel only pitty for this poor horses and mules who had to carry something so heavy in this wilderness!!! Marvelous captured, thanks for sharing, Richard!!! Hugs Ute
It's great when they make the old quarries into parks, so much nicer than a hole. This is a great shot and looks like a good place to explore.
Judging by the scenery it would make a fabulous park, bet there are a load of bugs there. Nice shot yesitis!!!
Nice shot sweetie Bless those ole mules and horses Excellent Hope you have a good Labor Day Weekend Hugs Susan~
Excellent capture, Richard, love how detailed the colors are and the story given with it. Have a happy weekend and Labor day!!

Fantastic scene-capture Richard !!!
