Up A Creek

Oak Creek on the West Fork trail outside of Sedona AZ.

Today’s image is from the red rock country of Sedona Arizona.  This shot was taken on the West Fork Trail just outside of Sedona.  The creek pictured is Oak Creek.

West Fork has to be one of the busiest trails I’ve ever been on in AZ.  Its popularity has risen over the last few years so traffic has picked up considerably.  Of course I was out there as well so anyone else could make the same argument about me being on the trail. 🙂

This weekend I plan to be on this trail again in search of fall colors.  When this image was taken the colors had barely begun to change due to the ever lasting summer we are having here in AZ.  I’m hoping for better results this time around.

Until next time…

 

Camera: Canon 40D with a Tamron 17-35mm

What on earth is Amococo do you…

    Today’s image is from our summer trip to Durango Colorado. During our time there the family decided they would like to do a horseback ride.  We signed up and returned the following day.  As we were waiting for our ride to start I grabbed my camera and walked the property. And of course what horse…
