I stayed in my RV near this desert view many times. I always kept one eye to the sky. As a photographer, I'd watch for some unique lighting conditions, cloud formations, the sun rise, and sunsets. When I saw this storm brewing, I headed out onto the desert floor. The sun was setting, that's why you see the brightly lit clouds on the mountain tops. The sun was hitting the mountains (notice the shadows) and there was enough light to create some shadows in the foreground. That said, I love the combination and contrast in this black and white photograph.
This photograph of Cathedral Rock took some planning. A couple years back, we drove along the base of Cathedral Rock, in search of the perfect spot to photograph this regal mountain. When we arrived, I knew with the setting sun, that the mountain's vibrancy and clarity would only last minutes. I scurried up a gravel covered hillside to my pre-planned vantage point. I didn’t look back; I had one thing in mind; get I high as I could, as quickly as you I could! Cathedral Rock is just one of the many sandstone buttes that surround the city of Sedona, Arizona. The towering Red Rock Mountains of Sedona are world famous and attracts over 3 million visitors every year. Cathedral Rock is one of the most-photographed landmarks in Sedona, and of Arizona too. Typically, those who fly into Phoenix, with plans to visit The Grand Canyon, will take the short detour into Sedona. The south rim of the Grand Canyon is 2 hours north of Sedona.
