#28: Nevada
These two look like they’ve just emerged from a dust-storm art installation—or maybe they’re scouting a secret trail just outside of Area 51. Set against a sun-blasted Nevada desert, their stern gazes and windswept tees conjure up the grit of ghost towns and the mystique of the Mojave.

The stereotype that Nevada is all barren heat, off-the-grid living, and enigmatic energy is evident here. And while it skips over the glitz of Vegas or the alpine vibes of Lake Tahoe, this portrait captures a different kind of Silver State spirit: part mystery, part survivalist chic, and sun-scorched.
