Sedona, Arizona and red rocks are like peanut butter in Reese's ... and I did take plenty of captures of the red rocks, but on this day when we arrived Oak Creek was running high and red from the recent rains.

Added the 9 Stop ND and CPL filters stacked here to get this view along the creek that did not need any red rocks. The clouds and the flowing water smoothed out with the reflection looked pretty cool I think.

A capture taken near sunset with rain falling onto my head (hat). Took quite a few captures like that on this trip with wet weather following us just about every day.

Did make for some nice clouds and skies though.

This capture was taken in Sedona at the base of Cathedral Rock, with moonlight there in the clouds and breaking dawn light filling in on the rocks.

Daytime capture of this iconic scene that we hear about ... and is amazing to see. Used the CPL filter here with the mid-day light.

While sunset or sunrise may make this look even better, it is great to see it under the daytime conditions I think. When we returned to the park later in the day for sunset, storms were all over the place ... hence never made it back to this particular spot. But the other parts of the park and those with the petrified wood are just as amazing to see ... and was quite the drama. Posts to come ;)
