    Just got back from a trip through NM -> AZ -> NV

    Just got back from a week and a half road trip. Thought I would share a couple pictures from the Petrified Forest/Painted Desert National Monument and one out of Sedona, Az.

    Comments always welcome.

    Very nice! The first one is beautiful, I love the sky, maybe crop a little off the bottom? 3rd one is beautiful. Looks like a fun trip!

    Does this crop work?

    The last one will probably loose something due to the sizing requirements.

    Sedona, Arizona was really amazing. I found there to be even more interesting than the Grand Canyon (not that it wasn't interesting, I guess there were just more pleasing photo ops in Sedona)

    Most of these shorts I had a polarizer filter on. In fact when I was there, I bought a second on for my EF 75-300mm lens also. I was really amazed at what an impact that the filter has on the pictures by really making the sky and clouds pop (even when framing them.)

    Thanks for your kind words!

    Cheers,
    Greg

    Beautiful pictures! Though I love the landscape of the southwest, and the rock formations, I think my favorite of the pictures you took is the road. Very cool.

    Thanks for the comment everyone.

    gracie_r: The road one was interesting, as it was one that I just popped off without a whole lot of thought going into it. For that one, I admit I got lucky.
    Cheers,
