Bryce Canyon

This is the third leg of Greg and Ann's journey in southern Utah.  Bryce is my favorite in that area and they did it justice.  Plus, they had snow!!!  Some of the images tell us that they did a little hiking among hoodoos.  That is something I have not done and am looking forward to it. Enjoy the images.  Nice to know that Lefty was not left at home.

Ann takes her understanding of leading lines to a new level.

You just know that Greg was daring me to post this.  Thanks for the smile, Greg!

Nice to see you again, Lefty.  

A very special thanks to a couple of great friends.  May you travel often.

Luna Moth

Phyllis has a new camera and she is putting it through its paces.  While Jon had the oil changed in their car, she went into the Butterfly Wonderland.  This is a short blog entry.  Enjoy these wonderful creatures.  I believe there is one photo that may or may not be a Luna moth, but moth it is nonetheless.  I will try to find out . . . 

In the mist . . . 

Laying eggs!!

This is the moth that I am not sure what kind . . . but being a gorgeous creature is plenty enough identification.

Kodachrome State Park

Located in Southern Utah, this wonderful photographic opportunity was next on Ann and Greg's four day journey.  Ann, who won't admit she is a photographer, is going to have a very difficult time now to convince anyone of that in the future.  I have not been to Kodachrome so these images piqued my interest in going.  I hope they do the same for you.

Often we look at big picture panoramas and love a place.  Then, when we actually get there we see the most amazing details that dazzle and we realize what we missed in the big picture.  The challenge, I find, is that if I was not there I cannot put the details in the context I want.  I wonder how many times I have done that in a blog, not realizing the challenge.  Ann made me think about that with this lovely detail.  I am going to Kodachrome and look for it!

At first I thought this might be a wall.  Then I saw the shoe prints!!  MUD?  Hahaha!

Could be a bear den!  Or fox, or snake . . . 

This would be an excellent photo to be used as texture, if you are into texturizing images in Photoshop.  OK, know that is not many of you, but it is fun, especially if you have your own images.

Bet they have ice and beer.

These might be the cabins where Greg and Ann stayed.  He called them the Red Stone cabins and said they were nice and had the added benefit of being in the park.  

Thank you to Ann and Greg.  Nice shares!!  Where is Lefty?
