To mkamionka: Red river
White Pocket is one of my favorite spots to visit when I head to northern Arizona. As I've mentioned in some of my posts from there, you really do need a 4x4 vehicle to access it. If you're just...

To LondonBoy: White Pocket pool & color
Hi Alex,
Thank you for your kind comments.

Hello Will,
Thank you for your kind critique. I'd run through most of the filters and the red was my second choice. Actually, I should say third as I almost chose neutral density as I wanted to...

To BennyV: Turn around!
Thank you for the comment. It inspired me to post a workshop, the photo taken just seconds later as I moved closer to the mid-ground rock so that it anchors the foreground instead.

Hello Bev,
The upper part of the Wash, the area where I was hiking, is less problematic in that regard. Though I have showed areas where the walls close in, there area many spots, such as this,...

Hi Vince,

Jimmy,
I think there are 3 ways I could have made the canyon stand out more in my photos:
1) Learn how to use layers and masks in Photoshop to selectively edit the sky and the canyon,
2) I...

Yes, definitely crispy. There's snow scheduled for the area tonight! Definitely not the time to wade in the stream. Even in July it was toe loss inducing. I think I was a mile back down the trail...

Apparently the color is constant whether or not it's directly after a storm. My trip was 4 to 5 days after the last storm and, if I remember correctly, down to about 16 cu ft/min.

Hi Jean,
Thank you for your kind critique. It was kind of the rowers to align with the sun's light river on the lake. It was a beautiful morning for photography.
