Thank you Vincent.very pretty sky, with a wonderful foreground.
It is very nice Jerome. Rossseau is a favorite of mine Vincent, you can find the animals here:yo Rousseau! Where did the animals go?
Jerome,
Very nice image, and great detail.....
This is sort of a follow-up from the last photo I posted. I turned around 180 degrees from my initial set-up and photographed this when the clouds started going crazy. The sky got even wilder as I went back to my initial spot, and then, poof the light was gone. I find one of the hardest things to do is keeping my composure and using good technique with quickly changing light and conditions (especially in the early morning hours).http://forum.getdpi.com/forum/images/attach/jpg.gif

Thanks Rick. I thought perhaps you were somewhere in the Great Lakes. White Pocket sounds like an amazing place:Tom,
This is at the White Pocket section of Vermilion Cliffs National Monument near Page Arizona. It's close to the North and South Coyote Buttes Area. If you look at photos of the horseshoe bend near Page, White Pocket would be 20 miles or so past the river. It's a four wheel drive excursion to get back there with a few tricky spots and some deep soft sand. I camp out of my truck when I've gone - no facilities - but everywhere you look there is something to photograph.

Thats the place. Pretty crazy. An interesting note, if you look carefully at the ninth photo down, you can make out the impressions made by cattle's hoofs over the bare rock. There's pockets and actually a small concrete dam that hold water. The cattle and animals find their way across the rock to the watering holes. I'm often out past dark, and here I just needed to find the cattle trail with my headlamp and follow the pock marks through the rocks to find my way back to camp.Thanks Rick.

White Pocket is an "other-worldly" kind of place, the likes of which I hadn't seen before. Three of us hired a guide who drove us in and back out. One unfortunate soul who didn't hire our guide, but followed us in his personal vehicle, got stuck in deep sand on the way in and we couldn't pull him out. He probably spent the night on the road waiting for help.Thanks Rick. I thought perhaps you were somewhere in the Great Lakes. White Pocket sounds like an amazing place:
