Grand Canyon Indian Oasis

This Grand Canyon photo was taken from the back of El Tovar Lodge. The clouds behind me let a bit of the setting sun through to light up the view. Below you can see the trees identifying the "Indian Oasis".

Saguaro Generations

This photo was taken in the Estrella Mountains. The clouds make a nice backdrop to several generations of saguaros.

Oak Creek in Spring

You can't beat a spring day in Arizona, standing in the creek with your tripod balanced on rocks.

Grand Canyon Sunbeams

It was worth the two hour wait to get this shot of sunbeams on the Grand Canyon. This bit of sun lit up the Colorado River while clouds lay in the mountains.

Tonto Natural Bridge

Tonto Natural Bridge is believed to be the largest travertine bridge in the world. The hike to get a shot from this angle did not feel like much as I made my way to the bridge. Then I turned around to see all the 10 to 15 foot rocks I had to climb to get out. Yikes! Never fear. There are easy paths to get different views of this bridge.

Bryce Canyon Sunset Point in Fog

Bryce Canyon in January is oh so cold. At Sunset Point at Sunrise there was so much fog you couldn't see that there was a canyon at all. As the fog lifted you could see the crisscrossing rock formations, which lines lead your eye right through this photo.

Bristlecone Pine Bryce Canyon

At Sunset Point in Bryce Canyon this Bristlecone Pine stands alone, surrounded by fog. In just a few hours the snow was gone along with the fog.

Bryce Canyon at Bryce Point

The last of the fog was lifting from Bryce Point in Bryce Canyon as the sun was going down. You can see the yellow of the mountains through the clouds.

Grand Canyon Cloudy Day

This Grand Canyon photo was shot behind El Tovar Lodge. I loved the little cloud sticking to the rock formation in the distance. Even cloudy days are beautiful at the Grand Canyon.

Lonely Grand Canyon Tree

The sun was just going down during the "blue hour". This little tree was plastered with the snow from a blizzard. I love the blues in this photo.
