Florida National Scenic Trail, Withlacoochee State Forest, Citrus County, Fl (Acreage: 164,073 acres)
Pools of water form on the trails of Monument Valley after intense rain making it difficult for vehicles to navigate in the soft soil. Though total precipitation is limited, only 8 in. annually, when it does rain (mostly in August and September) the water is unable to be absorbed quickly and can remain on the surface for an extended period.
Monument Valley is a Navajo Tribal Park (30,000 acres) established in 1958 and located on the border of Arizona and Utah within the 16 million-acre Navajo Reservation. The Valley (actually a plateau) is one of the most iconic and enduring landmarks of the American West with its isolated red mesas, buttes and a sprawling sandy desert that has been photographed and filmed countless times. Crimson mesas and surreal sandstone towers rise hundreds of feet in the air. The rock formations in the background are called the "Totem Pole" (tall single spire on the left) and the "Yei Bi Chei Rocks".
The Totem Pole stands 400 ft. tall. The Yei-Bi-Chei resembles a holy figure among the Navajo people. In fact, distinguished Navajo men dress as Yei-Bi-Cheis and dance for healing purposes in a very sacred nine-day ceremony called the "Night Way Ceremony". The Yei-Bi-Chei rock formation appears to have a line formation of several different Yei-Bi-Chei dancers.

A mid-afternoon hike down to the bottom of the Park Avenue trail at Arches National Park.
That's The Organ in middle right of the frame, I believe. It's actually on the other side of the road that you can't see in the distance.
So amazingly quiet. I loved standing there, soaking it all in.
I just finished reading Edward Abbey's "Desert Solitaire: A Season in the Wilderness", about his two seasons as a Park Ranger here when it was a National Monument -- before paved roads in the 50s.
Some of the things he railed on in the book have come to fruition -- in that, he proved to be very prophetic.
I also didn't realize he went to college at my alma mater, the University of New Mexico.
One thing the publisher got wrong (well, with the paperback edition of the book I have anyway) is that the cover photo is actually Monument Valley. Oops. I did see later editions did feature Delicate Arch on the cover.
I'll just close with one of my favorite quotes from the book:
“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.”
― Edward Abbey

Sweet Creek Trail has so many interesting aspects, waterfalls, catwalks bolted to the canyon walls, and the mysterious coastal rain forest full of ferns and hanging mosses..
To all friends and visitors to my photostream, thank-you for the comments. To those who fave, a comment would be appreciated.
This was taken along the former Housatonic Railroad, which is now a scenic trail in Monroe, CT. Late afternoon light lit up the trail and trees.

This is the time of year when we all like to get out to a favorite trail to get our autumn trail shot. Here's mine.
Wexford Trails - I was in New Ross today and had some time to capture a few images at the stunning JFK Memorial Park.
the first stop on the river, coming out of the woods, we saw a small village and a guy riding a bike along the trails

The view towards Harrods in the blue hour just after the lights were switched on. This shot can be seen as my first Christmas themed shot of the year!
My first star trail ... very much a test shot to learn some lessons for when I do it for real later in the year. The focus isn't quite right here but I put this down to it being 2am in the morning and the few nips of Laphroaig that I had consumed beforehand :D Also, still very much learning how to use my camera's intervalometer.
We've just planted some bedding plants in our various garden pots and planters, including this blue trailing petunia, which has been the first to flower. It will hopefully be joined by various other colours in the next week or so.
this pattern was produced by using this night scene photo : flic.kr/p/AF9zUd
there were two layers, the upper layer is simply making vertical strips to the photo and then took away alternate strips, the lower layer is rotating the photo 90 degree left and scale up to match the width !

"The clouds that race me might be TRAILING IN COLORS... Over the lawns... And out of this song... And so high over the world then..."
Above Route 20 near Rockport. For scale the person on the trail just beyond its dip is an adult.

Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting. Not in entire forgetfulness, and not in utter nakedness, but trailing clouds of glory do we come. William Wordsworth

This was taken from my Trail Camera. I don't know what he is looking at. Maybe a squirrel.
The coyote is a canid native to North America. It is a smaller, more basal animal than its close relative, the gray wolf, being roughly the North American equivalent to the Old World golden jackal, though it is larger and more predatory in nature.
