Red Rock State Park

I have been enjoying a very lazy weekend, so I thought I would share some of my photos from my Arizona Vacation a few months back.
Welcome to the scenic beauty of Northern Arizona. These photos were all taken in Red Rock State Park just outside of Sadona, Arizona.





Bell Mountain
This area is considered to contain many energy vortexes, Bell Mountain being one that is believed by many locals to hold strong spiritual powers. According to my Mother-in-law a few years ago many people gathered on Bell Mountain in hopes of a much anticipated rapture only to be overcome by heat stroke in the hot afternoon sun. For most though this area is just a magnificent area to hike and commune with nature.



I hope you have enjoyed this virtual trip to Red Rock State Park. Now please hop over and visit some of the other city's taking part in Unknown Mami's Sunday in my City.

Photo Walk

With overcast skies and a chilly wind blowing I decided it was a good day to get caught up on a few tasks I have avoided during the last few months, like archiving my photos. Lo and behold I discovered that I had completely neglected to share the photo walk I took on the last Sunday in September. So I hope you enjoy these.

I had met up with four other photographers for a photo walk through the Freemason District in downtown Norfolk. Hanging back from the group a bit I was happy to capture this reflection of the others in the side of a docked ship.
Weekend Reflection Submission
It was a beautiful afternoon with the long shadows and gorgeous reflections off the water.
 We were not the only once enjoying a peaceful Sunday afternoon.
You know the art is most important when the photographer isn't afraid of a little dirt or odd looks from passerby's.
As it was almost October I was a bit surprised to see the Japanese Gardens still had a few flowers.
 Sorry this one is a tad fuzzy, but this doll is just too cute not to share.
 The buildings in this area of town all have such a warm historical feel to them, both old and new.
 Am I crazy or do pumpkins on a doorstep that just ooze warmth?
 Of course I couldn't pass up this tower, isn't it just amazing?
We did get a few odd looks along our walk. But that is okay, gives me a chance to capture some interesting human shots.
We ended our walk with refreshments at Hell's Kitchen. Overall it was a very enjoyable Sunday afternoon with some wonderful women.
