Skywatch Friday

In addition to Skywatch Friday, also linking with Orange You Glad It's Friday! There is so much orange in these skywatch shots, I couldn't resist! These were taken early this week up near the Summit House Restaurant. 
The young man below seemed to be mesmerized by the sunset and deep in thought as he looked out over the horizon. He never even knew I snapped his picture! A penny for your thoughts?
Lastly, a fence shot. You follow this fence line to hike up to the lookout views, where the first two photos were taken.
I always look forward to the weekends. We are planning on going out to the desert this weekend, so hope to find time to get some desert shots. Thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend!

PS:  Just saw the linkup over at Good Fences, so going to give that a try as well!

    The sky shot is very striking with the great orange color. The desert area must be a very interesting place to visit for some shots. These today are very interesting and successful.
