"Crimson Cliffs Moonrise:" The previous moonrise photo I posted from Sedona was a fairly relaxed experience. This second image that I captured from the same evening was a lot more frantic, as it required me first packing up my gear from my first spot, then rushing to relocate to a different spot a drive and a hike away, then wanting to capture the moon precisely in this notch of rocks known as the Crimson Cliffs. What I did not know was all of the varied terrain involved in trying to acquire the best vantage point to view this transition, including several hillsides to go up and down, and washes to navigate, complete with lots of thorny plants to work through (even with long pants, my upper legs ended up looking like a cat clawed them when I was done), then trying to avoid tall visual obstructions, such as trees in the foreground. All in all, it turned out to be a bit more of a scramble than I had hoped, but I was extremely thankful that just as I was about to give up and turn back, I saw the moon come exactly through the narrow space between the rock pillars and also just in time before the sun completely set, giving the rocks an extreme red glow with that final light of the day. I hope you enjoy.

I got up to shoot sunrise at Santorini and realised all these low formation clouds and fog covering the caldera. As a cruise ship approached in the early hours of the morning to enter the bay, there was beautiful light on the cliffs and the rocks of the caldera.

The wall as I saw it last Sunday looks impressive and beautiful, with a long and gentle slope, amazing geological lines and the nice tones of sandstone. Maybe the picture needs something else... a pair of seagulls, a glider, dramatic clouds, a dinosaur footprint... Or maybe it doesn't... Tomorrow I'll go back there for dawn and sunrise. Wanna come?
