Sunset is a special time of the day...
...especially in Sedona!
The golden hour colors reflected on the red rocks
seems to soften their starkness.
The shadows give a sense of mystery...
...and heighten the drama of the scene.
One of my goals while we were in Sedona was to capture
a Sedona sunset.
We went up to a spot overlooking the area and
wrangled a spot amongst all the visitors, photographers et al.
A really nice gentleman offered to take our photo!
How can you not suspect that God exists
when observing the beauty of a sunset?
"When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon,
my soul expands in the worship of the creator."
Mahatma Ghandi

ReplyDeleteThank you Woody! Sedona is especially colorful! The first time I was there was over New Year's about 35 years ago. There was a dusting of snow on the tops of the red rock...it was stunningly beautiful! I got "Red Rock Fever" and started looking at jobs I could get! Didn't find one, but whenever I go back, I get a tinge of the fever again!!!
DeleteAhhh, Sedona...yes, indeed beautiful. We vacationed there three years in a row. Could never get enough of Cathedral Rock, not to mention all the excellent hiking trails.
