Red Rock Beauty in Sedona, AZ
Yesterday was a beautiful crisp autumn day in Sedona. "Crisp" not in terms of temperature, as it was still relatively warm there, but in the vivid quality of blue sky that domed over the desert. It was a great day for taking a hike, and so we did. Here are some of my favorite photos from yesterday's excursion. Some of these photos are of the same red rock formations from varying vantage points, but I just couldn't resist.
As seen with the above, I really wanted to get photos of red rocks with yucca in the foreground.
Initially, I didn't want to include the above photo in the collection, as it is the one exception to all the blue sky beauty present in the other photos, but the red rock formation and the grasses at the forefront insisted on taking this starring role.
I fell in love with this dead tree stump the moment I saw it. Look at the graininess of its texture and its variation of color.
Bell Rock. The trail we took actually winds around this majestic rock feature.
There is a certain regal quality to the way this red rock is captured in this photograph, all front and center with formidable height and mass.
Some dead tree action here. Dead trees rock! (Disclaimer: Living trees also rock, and I love both equally.)
A bouquet of red rocks. I love it.
I like the mushroom-top feature of these red rocks here.
A classic view that has been the subject of multiple photo-taking fits of mine in the past. I never tire of it.
