Photo-Swap-Thursday #2

Edge View From Horseshoe Bend

Heather: Sometimes, the view itself is the adventure… Last spring I spent a week hiking around Arizona with my oldest son. I shot this photo from my own breath-taking cliff’s edge position at Horse Shoe Bend in Page, Arizona where there are no barriers except your own common sense.


Sunset photos of Horseshoe Bend near Page, Arizona take a bit of planning.  Bursting, changing light and a cliff side tripod perch are just a couple of the challenges.  Wind and blowing sand can make the experience even more interesting…”

Hi my friends,

Thank you all for the wonderful comments again. I was to busy yesterday to put up a post. I hope you'll enjoy this one today. I've captured this picture in the old film studios in Old Tuscon in Arizona on my recent trip across America. It shows the entrance to the ranch house out of the TV series "High Chaparral".

Have a wonderful day - and thanks for visiting and commenting again.

It's like out of a fairy book!

On the way up to the Bryce Canyon


First we had to pass trough the "Red Canyon"


And this was the picture I have seen there: The majestic Bryce Canyon!


The elevation was more than 8000 feet - and I could feel it very well, the air was thin and I had a hard time to breath.
No wonder people say: The Bryce Canyon is breathtaking :)


Tourists from all over the world came to see this wonder work of Mother Nature, I heard also Swiss people discussion the amazing view :)


I can only say: Enjoy these view!


Speechless about so much beauty


The "magic" entrance - to another world maybe ? :)


The full view (with my wide angle lens)


Close up shot (300mm lens)


It looks almost like the temples of Bali :)


I couldn't get enough to photograph these "Hoodoos" :)


I can not say which one of the two Canyons are more beautiful - they are bot majestic and so different from each other. I liked them both and I'm so lucky and happy that I had the chance to visit both of them.



Hi my friends,

Grand Canyon - Bryce Canyon and all the other pretty places we went trough.... I have seen now so many beautiful and amazing landscape in our pretty soon 4 moths of traveling and every state here in the U.S. has his own beauty to share with us. I'm often totally overwhelmed about the beauty of America - and about the size too...LOL...

We are just now almost in Salt Lake City in Utah. I like this green state with its still snow covered mountains and with all the green valleys. It's very special!

Dave is still recovering from his bronchitis, but he is getting better every day, so we have to move on a little bit slower as usual, heading probably up to Montana - slowly, one day we will be there.... :)

Thanks for all your kind comments and visits, I appreciate every single one!

Stay tuned with me... :)
Susanne and David
