p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Somewhere in Arizona . . .

We decided to go on a small adventure north of Flagstaff to find some rock formations I've seen in a few photos. We ended up finding exactly the rocks we were looking for and then some. I will definitely be revisiting this place looking for better light and compositions. The amount of wandering to be had is mind blowing and it's pristine as can be. We were also privileged to witness a small herd of stampeding Antelope as they outran our car and ran up a cliff on the way there.

Hey John,

Wow... what a cool place that you have found! I don't recognize it at all, but boy it's sweet. My favorite is #3. The composition there with all of the different rock structures is so cool. Is #1 and 2 the area you were looking for? And #3 the "more" that you found?

Just when you think there isn't a square inch of land that hasn't been explored, you have found something new, well at least to me. And it sounds like you felt a great sense of accomplishment too, so I know that had to have been a great time for you.

I look forward to seeing more.

Thanks Jim. The area that I ended up photographing here was some of the "bonus" stuff. The main formations were down some gnarly (barely-there) roads that we didn't want to navigate after dark, so we left there and ended up here for sunset.

I don't feel as strongly about this one, but one more from that same area . . .

Very nice! I like this last one you posted a lot. It makes me feel like if I stumble into the frame, the ground will break open and I'll fall into an abyss. You've also got some short "sailing stone" tracks in there.

I like your bonus area shot, perhaps pull back a bit more on the sky, especially around the sun. But what a cool area. I am sure you have a return trip now in the books?
