Texas has several distinct areas. One of them is West Texas.
Texas State Photographer Wyman Meinzer has produced this West Texas video that gives you an up close and personal look at the vastness of this part of our state.
Enjoy!
I had some difficulty in uploading this video, so I hope it's still here when this posts.

Thank you for 4:43 of beautiful pictures and stunning music.
Amazing Carol. Thanks for sharing.
I have only been through West Texas a few times (my brother used to live there), but remember it as beautiful for so hot and dry. Now my relatives reside in South Texas so we enjoy the beach perks.
Meinzer has such a way of capturing how dramatic the landscape, the skies and nature are there in Texas. And snow, too! Just beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful and inspiring to a fellow photographer! Thanks for posting.
Simply beautiful. You live in such a beautiful state. Lucky Tiki lady.
There are many reasons to love Texas, right? But Wyman Meinzer and his photography makes this obvious and accessible. Thanks for this.
Incredible photos, simple beautiful. I do hope he was using a telephoto lens for that rattle pic...yikes!
Wow. Beautiful site and video...
Those kinds of things are inspiring.
Video worked! Photographer caught some beautiful images.
I've been through West Texas - I know it's huge.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
I'm going to Houston in March. Can't wait! I love Texas too, because my son and his family live there :)
Simply beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing. Gorgeous images.
Liza - I'm glad you enjoyed the experience.
Slamdunk - We moved to San Antonio from Corpus Christi :)
Joanne - He's fantastic.
Tracy Jo - Check his website for more.
Linda K - I am fortunate in some ways. And grateful.
I've been to Texarkana and Dallas and boy were they different.
I like Texas.
Oh my, that is beautiful. I've never been to Texas, but hope to make it someday.
Cynthia - True and true :)
Holly - LOL...he's still here, so I'm sure he was.
LR - I think they're inspiring, too.
Alex - Miles and miles and miles....
Elspeth - You're welcome.
I just watched Cowboys and Alien's last night. I half expected to see aliens at any second while watching this. Ha!
Karen - Yea - enjoy your visit! If you visit San Antonio, get in touch. Houston doesn't look anything like West Texas.
Shirley - Maybe it's a little different from England.
Teresa - Texas is great. And all our parts are unique.
Julie - Come on down!
Emily - Too funny. But...when you're out there, sometimes you think you see aliens, too :)
Lovely! It did my born-in-Texas heart good to see it. Thanks for sharing it! :)
I/ve been to quite a few places in the US but never texas, thanks for the video it was wonderful to watch,
Yvonne.
Really like how the music changes based on the pictures. He did a really nice job putting this together. I can say I know a bit more about Texas from watching this.
Linda G - Once a Texan, always a Texan, no matter where you are :)
Yvonne - Maybe next time you visit us, you can come to Texas.
Joy - I like the music choices, too.
Ah, the West. Horses and cowboys. The open spaces. The jagged hills. And those incredible sunsets! I've only been through the Panhandle, so it was wonderful to see the variety of the state through an amazing photographer's eye. As varied as the state where I grew up (Utah). Made me a bit homesick for the West as I watched and listened. My daughter was in her room, listening. She said, "Nice music." A perfect-ly awesome video that let me sit back and just relax. Thanks so much for taking the time to share it!

What a wonderful video...well worth the watch.
Hubs and I always look at each other are we cross the Texas line goin' to Brownsville to see my mom sayin', 'miles and miles of Texas!!!
You have a fantastically blessed day sweetie!!! :o)
Ann - I'm glad you enjoyed the video and that Jen liked the music.
Nezzy - That's for sure! Blessings to you, too.
My hubs is from East Texas but we met in West Texas. This was a great trip down memory lane!
Wow! Gorgeous.
Having lived in East Texas for the summer, I was amazed at how beautiful and diverse the state is. And the people are so friendly! One guy even wanted to show me his gun... (not a euphemism, ha!). :)
Wow that was beautiful! I'm bookmarking this post for the next time my one WiP needs inspiration. :-)
Simply gorgeous photography. Brought back a lot of memories. I'll be checking out his link!
Julie - Happy to provide it!
Talli - A summer in East Texas - hot and sticky (no double entendre intended there either) LOL!
Rula - More photographs on his website :)
Carol,
I have heard such wonderful things about Texas. The pictures make me want to pull up stakes and move there.
Kathi - Come on...we'll let you in :) West Texas encompasses the most land and fewest people in our state.
Truly beautiful! Makes me want to grab my hat and head on over! Julie
Beautiful, beautiful pictures! I loved seeing the Texas Longhorns!
Julie - Anytime!
Lydia - Bevo Rocks :)
Very pretty! I think I could get lost there.
Janet - I can get lost anywhere, so I try to stay on the roads :)
Misha - You were in the spam filter again. Sigh. I'm happy to offer you inspiration :)
