White Pocket is NOT an easy place to get to. You have to WANT to go here. The drive is long and challenging, and then there is a small bit of a hike. Bring water.
But once there, the surroundings are incredible! One could easily spend the entire day here, exploring, climbing, and taking in the dynamic landscapes. As the light changes, so does EVERYTHING! Grey whites, sage green, honey golds, tangerine oranges, dry dirt brown, and Arizona reds-- the color palette is stunning. Definitely worth all the trouble getting here :).

White Pocket, Arizona. Not the best light, but it's always fun to find a pool of water in the desert and get a reflection shot.
LS&I 3009 and 3000, the railroads pair of Ex BN U30Cs bring 7 Tilden through a pocket of light at Eagle Mills Jct with 30 ore jennies.
Fifth pocket on a pair of five pocket blue genes. The small fifth pocket was originally intended for a pocket watch but almost no one carries a pocket watch these days and few even wear a traditional wristwatch. This small bit of obsolescence is for the Crazy Tuesday Group, challenge, Outdated.
Happy Crazy Tuesday!
This photo was shot in White Pocket in a morning. The sun light was cast on a rock formation that was reflected in a water pocket, a typical scene of White Pocket.
Here, I put the watch on a shiny red tile using Blu Tack to hold it in place. The edge of the tile is visible but out of focus at the bottom of the image allowing the reflection of the watch to fade away. The background blackout blind is independently lit with a softbox. Post-editing: softglow and removal of visible Blu Tack
only got my pocket camera at the moment but still manage the odd good shot with it--this is mum swan with 8 cygnets on her back today along the canal in stockton heath
🇬🇧 Well, we start with the first photo of the recent trip to the West Coast of the United States with Felipe, Paco and Delfin.
This photo is the first contact we had there, it was an afternoon when the sun was shining, I was exploring many sites, it was not easy to choose because they were all good. The case that little by little and without predicting it well (because I didn't look too much at the sky) clouds and good light suddenly appeared, but only in certain directions, so I had to act fast and look for compositions, I omitted the tripod raising a little the ISO to work faster and this was the photo I took.
🇪🇸 Pues empezamos con la primera foto del reciente viaje a La Costa Oeste de Estados Unidos junto a @felipesoutophoto , @pacofernandezalmeria y @delfingarcia60
Un buen sitio para elegir una foto era White Pocket, después de estar dos días casi enteros allí, os podréis imaginar que las tarjetas SD llegaron a rebosar.
Esta foto es el del primer contacto que tuvimos allí, era una tarde que pegaba bien el sol, estuve explorando numerosos sitios, no era fácil elegir porque todos eran buenos . El caso que poco a poco y sin predecirlo bien (porque no miré demasiado al cielo) aparecieron nubes y buena luz de repente, pero solo en ciertas direcciones, así que hubo que actuar rápido y buscar compos, omití el trípode subiendo un pelín la ISO para trabajar mas rápido y esta fue la foto que saqué.
Decided to inject some red into my feed! :)
A colorful sunrise in the northern Arizona red rock desert fills the landscape with rich reds and purples. While visiting White Pocket in northern Arizona, the light often did not cooperate, but on this morning, the sky filled with beautiful colors to accentuate the sandstone formations.

White Pocket
Vermilion Cliffs National Monument
Arizona
March 2025
White Pocket, tucked within Vermilion Cliffs National Monument in northern Arizona, is a hidden gem of swirling sandstone, otherworldly rock formations, and vibrant colors. Its landscape—a mesmerizing blend of white, red, and orange sandstone—has been sculpted into domes, ridges, and brain-like textures over time. Adventurers are drawn to its alien beauty, where each turn reveals a new geological marvel. Its remote isolation enhances the mystique.

On the remote Paria Plateau in Arizona's Vermilion Cliffs National Monument, White Pocket is a group of swirling, multicolored formations of Navajo sandstone, including domes, hoodoos, gullies and potholes. Arriving at White Pocket inside Vermilion Cliffs National Monument, you are initially struck by the contrast of white rock in smoothly rounded mounds and cliff edges, dotted with two imperial looking spherical beehives rock cones

If you don't already recognize it, this is White Pocket! With beautiful lines and textures, it's one of my favorite places to photograph. I took this during our Southwest Expedition with Photopills in 2022. A lenticular cloud structure developed over the rock formations along with some spotlighting. When I sat down to work on the image, it just screamed for a monochrome treatment.
As a co-founder and organizer of the Outsiders Photography Conference, I'll be heading back to the Southwest soon. I look forward to seeing many familiar faces in Kanab, March 3-5! Message me if you'd like to join us last minute .
I'm broke but I'm happy, I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm short but I'm healthy, yeah
I'm high but I'm grounded, I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful, baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be fine, fine, fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I'm sober, I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working, yeah
I care but I'm restless, I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
What it all comes down to
Is that everything is going to be quite alright
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette
What it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a peace sign
I'm free but I'm focused, I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly, baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing, I'm brave but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing the piano
And what it all comes down to, my friends, yeah
Is that everything is just fine fine fine
I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab

Only a few feet away from this tiny bunny was a Shih Tzu dog. They were totally unaware of each other. Ravenna Park, Seattle, Washington
Took a road trip out east after work yesterday, dodging storms on unmaintained, County Roads looking for pockets of light. I can't tell you how much of a muse this little flying camera has been. It opens up a 4th dimension to my composition, which allows me to see everything in a completely new and exciting way. I have a z axis now...

October Milky Way over White Pocket region, Vermillion Cliffs Nat'l Mon., northern Arizona. I used Low Level Lighting last week to enhance the texture of the bleached-white sandstone or "cauliflower rock" in this unique area. In the wet seasons, these depressions fill up with rain water runoff and serve as waterholes for wildlife and cattle.

EXIF: One 15 sec exposure, f/2.8, ISO 6400, 15mm lens on a Canon 5DM3.
You can learn more about the non light-polluting benefits of Low Level Landscape Lighting (LLL) on my public service website that I host with my friend and colleague, Wayne Pinkston.
More of my night photography techniques (my specialty) are available in my ebook, Milky Way NightScapes, which gives extensive details on my style of starry night landscape photography. Four chapters cover planning, scouting, forecasting star/landscape alignment, light painting, shooting techniques and post processing.

White Pocket is a little area hidden in the Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness. Despite being a small area it offers a variety of compositions that cannot be fully explored with a single trip there. Besides, each visit to the area offers quite different light and weather conditions which makes each visit a unique experience. For further information about White Pocket I recommend reading my travelogue.
Interested in a photo tour through the American Southwest? I can help you with it and make you come back with unique shots.

A photo of an area of White Pocket on the Paria Plateau in Northern Arizona. Getting there requires a high clearance 4x4 because of the deep rutted, very sandy road. Well worth the trip.
