*A Full Format (larger image) available upon request. My favorite place to park my RV for the night is off-grid, with Mother Nature. It's here that I've had the most amazing, non-intrusive views, the best meals and glasses of wine (yes, the very best of times!). Losee Canyon was one such place. As I approached Bryce Canyon from the west, I was pondering where we might spend the night when I suddenly noticed a gravel road. I quickly slowed down and without any further thought or discussion, I turned. The road was in poor condition (and dusty) so I decided I wouldn't venture too far from the main highway. Then, to our complete surprise, we happened upon a staging area and trailhead! It was the very most, perfect off-grid parking spot to stay in for the night! Who would have thought, so close to Bryce Canyon! Although it was a dreary and cold when we arrived, we still hiked part of the trail. Oh gosh, we were so very amazed by the trail, we vowed to hike it again in the morning. The next morning we got up early, with plans to hike and explore even further than the night before. We were so pleased that the weather had cleared and although it was cold, the colors were amazingly vivid. When this bluff came into view I pointed, "Look at the strange formation, and look at the colors!". I have not done any color corrections to this photo, it is exactly as I saw it. LOL, we didn't hike very far; we were too busy taking photographs! * I love the foreground tree!
The world of photography has changed significantly since leaving (a previous) photographic career. Now in retirement not only do I recognize the importance of continual, mindful and spiritual growth I also recognize my need for day to day stimuli and connectivity; hence this, my photographic journey 😊 When I left my photographic career, we used 35mm cameras and (we all) had to wait to see the end results (after the negative had been processed, printed and corrected/adjusted). That said however, I was fortunate to own a photo lab and I could tweak my photographic processing to fit my vision; it was a long process! Who would have thought that I can do all of my pre-editing (processing) on my computer, at home and see it immediately..... AND then share it with you! What an amazing world! Anyways, where I’m going with this is that I’m now trying to master the digital end of the photographic world and I’ve tried 5 different photography editing sites and I think I’ve chosen this one; it gives me the ability to save crisp photos for web applications.
