Desert Roadblock • Monomad
# Desert Roadblock • Monomad
<p>

I came across this desert roadblock last month while hiking in the Mojave desert. It was an interesting mix of materials and it looks like the only thing they didn't include was the kitchen sink.

# Balance
<p>

This portion includes a nice balancing act aiming to ward off intruders. Needless to say, I did not disturb the barriers!

# Have you ever seen something like this?
<p>

I photographed the roadblock with my Canon 5D camera and 70-200 mm lens.
