AZ Holiday Snaps (lot of pics!)
Posted By: Adam, 01-19-2013, 01:13 AM

This holiday season I finally had the chance to go out and shoot a little bit, and here are some of my favorites. Hope you enjoy them!















A 1.3s exposure revealed a lot of stars. Normally you can barely see any without driving well outside of phoenix!
























Back in 2005, I shot this same dragon with my *ist DS. I like this new HDR one more (actually it's from a single file, but still)!

A visual feast! Some from Taliesen (sp?) West? So different from our vistas here in south Florida.

I'm happy to hear you like that shot! They really looked beautiful with that backlight, but because of the busy background it was extremely difficult to get a shot that looked good.

Yup, Taliesin West. Too bad it was a cloudy day!

thanks for sharing your holidays with us, looks like you spent some time in Flagstaff AZ. Is the first shot some type of Indian burial site? Really enjoyed the saguaro photo, great light.
