Don't overlook Enid itself, as well as the small towns to the west of
it.  Slightly to the north see The Great Salt Plains; drift over to
towns such as Fort Supply, Guymon, Beaver and Woodward.  Lots of
abandoned remnants of the great oil drilling bust of the '80's, as well
as current drilling in spots. Perhaps not as grandiose as the mountains
and the deserts but lots of opportunities for good b&w photography of
people and scenes.
