Very nice! Thank you...
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Visited friends in Phoenix about a year ago and spent an afternoon in Sedona. Not enough time. Hope to get back there some day.
Your shot of the canoes at Unicoi last October is great!!

There's a lot of trails and other things to do around Sedona. We took the jeep ride into the back country thinking we would get better shots but I don't think it was any better, but had a good time.

Thanks Mark, I am just learning the art of post processing and am starting to get the hang of it but Photoshop has such a steep learning curve.

Agree. I took a course in photography a few years back that helped quite a bit.

Yeah I think that would really help me but the community college in the little town we live in hasn't offered anything like that yet, as far as I know. I get a little help from other photographers but most are real secretive about their processing.

Maybe join a local photography club.
I did my course online: it was pretty good.

Hello sir,
Fantastic, all of them are fabulous. All of them remind me of either of the games i have played like :
Need For Speed, Prince of Persia, Medal of Honour etc etc. It seems like i am covering every location as the game proceeds. I am an Indian, never been here.
These pics give me a feeling of National Geographic TV or Discovery channel. Fantastic. There are a total of 439 pics, all of them are so unique and beautiful.
Looks as if you are very passionate about photography. The time and patience required here is too much. Do you like photography?
Thanks,
Rahul

Thanks for your kind words.
I love photography and have taken photos all my life (I'm 665) but until recently didn't have adicuate gear so it was mostly family and travel photos for me. But recently I purchase a good camera and a couple of good lenses and it has turned into a passion.

Hello Sir,
See i knew it. Its been my dream travelling to such places. Thats good, but does it not take a tons of patience to get a perfect click..... I remember my girl friend nagging me to take a good pic of her(but we broke up ... i am free at last  ) .
At times it becomes annoying but in the end you reap great rewards. However these lenses are very costly. I remember in my college days i was helping my friend in a project which dealt with fake currency detection. We wanted to capture the water marks, but couldnt because it needed a high quality camera.
Very nice, this is a great hobby. My hobby was to collect Archie comics.
Thanks a ton,
Rahul

With any hobby/passion such as photography it takes time and practice, I've been serious for about 3 years now and I started out with an inexpensive camera and kept upgrading to where I am now. I have good equipment but not professional, can't afford that unless/until someone starts buying my photos then I might take it to the next level.
