Dusk at Bell Rock

Dusk at Bell Rock · 01:47 PM

Sedona, Az

I went on a photographic mission over the weekend. I fired up the restored 76 VW Type II Transporter Westfalia Campmobile, and headed to Sedona. I tried to capture the sunset just after a small storm, and was hoping to get some stars as well. The weather offered some positive results (IMO). Thanks for looking.

I like it; dusk shots - especially of a subject like this one - have a truly haunting look.

You have some stunning scenery in your area Wade, nice to see you going out and capturing it.

Very nice, spectacular, in fact. Maybe it's the resizing but your rocks look soft. Perhaps a little sharpening is order. Oddly enough the sky looks fine. Careful not to destroy the soft quality of the sky colours when sharpening- if you bother.

Wonderful shot. A lot of elements captured in one shot. I do like the colors in the sky.

Wow, stunning colour and sentiment.

Thanks for sharing this wonderful image!

Thanks guys. My k200d has really inspired me to take advantage of my beautiful surroundings. I can't really take credit for the views, but will accept the c&c with much gratitude. This was taken with the A-SMC 50mm 30sec exposure f1.7.

Great shot Wade - as I mentioned before my wife recently went to Sedona and marvelled at all the beautiful scenery. She said I would love it there and from you have shown so far (and some of her pics) I would have to agree.
