White Pocket Mountain from my very "private" trailhead during sunrise (5:36 am).
I was there alone years ago and was afraid I would get stuck in the deep sand. So I parked my SUV above the critical slope that leads down to the official trailhead and hiked across country to White Pocket for about 20 minutes. In the morning around sunrise I had this beautiful view of the mountain, glowing in the first light from above.

There are so many facets to White Pocket. This is another composition from a recent trip. I tried to use the lines in the rocks to pull you into the image.

Image of one of the most beautiful landscapes in the American Southwest, a paradise for landscape photographers.
These are some of the namesake white sandstone formations of White Pocket, in the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument, northern Arizona
Another... Again, it was dead cheap at the local discounter, so I could not resist 😜.
Reasonable sharp, but not a razor. Minor manufacturing flaws, some edges not perfectly smoothed out. The wooden application on the right is ever so slightly loose.
Fully "street legal" in Germany - the blade is even locked in the closed position.

Since I no longer wear three piece suits, this timepiece has not seen much use. Just pulling it out of the drawer gives me a smile in remembrance of earlier times.
The landscape in White Pocket NM is surreal. This area is part of the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument. I don't mean to over-use a cliche description, but it truly is like another planet. There are so many oddly shaped rock formations that it can be hard to choose what to shoot.
In this composition I elected to put a human into the frame to provide a sense of scale and drama. In my opinion this seems to portray a feeling of loneliness. Man vrs nature is one thing, but man vrs this odd environment makes it feel that much more alone.
Expect more images form this unique place for sure.
We're don't know which side of our families of origin took such loving care of this pocket watch through the years. The inscribed date on the inner cover reads April 1920.
I experimented with apertures, extension tubes, and focal points, and had a fine time while it rained. I had intended to add it to Macro Mondays last Monday until I noticed that I had entered an older macro two years ago.
Thanks for looking, and for your faves ;)

The strange and colorful landscape is definitely worth a couple of extra days on your trip. White Pocket does not require a permit like the Wave but is equally interesting and unusual. Nevertheless there are not many visitors since the deep sand roads are only accessible with a 4 wheel drive and a high clearance. Road conditions are better in winter, when the sand is more compact after the rain.
Here is another sunrise shot from my White Pocket trip.
There are so many great photo spots at this site! It belongs to the bucket list of any landscape photographer...
Thanks for all comments and faves. They are highly appreciated!

Pockets of water form inside sandstone formations along the California Coast. Tafoni sandstone takes on terrific organic shapes and patterns here. Slowly changing shape with each major winter storm, and the always present force of the Pacific Ocean.

The worst October in recored history for us has left most trees bare of their Fall foliage way too early! But if you look in some very secluded and wind protected areas you can still find a tree or two that when backlit by the sun remind us of what "could have been"!!
Thank You so much for all comments, Faves, views, awards, and invites!!
During last year photo tour in West South of USA, we also visited a beautiful area between Utah and Arizona, called White Pocket.
‘Pocket Peacock’
I’ve been trying to take another shot of this cute little thing since October last year, but haven’t had any luck.

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 :).
