My main focus on trips is animal viewing and photography. It was already too cold to see any reptiles, (sniff sniff!), but I looked for other types of animals and tried to take the nicest landscapes pictures I could. With all these colors in the rocks, the most important factor for photographs is sunlight, in the best angle possible with clear skies. The red of the mountains kind of glow when sun is a bit low in the sky. But end of fall season helps in that matter, because sun never goes that high in the sky, when you're not in the tropics. The day when I explored Bell rock and CourtHouse butte, was for me, the best to photograph mountains. I was able to photograph some animals as well. Enjoy!... read more

I consider the Sedona Vortex is a very real natural geo-physical force located in the red rock formations around Sedona, Arizona. I get a good feeling inside me every time I visited Sedona since my first time in 1984. The Native Americans considered this sacred ground for thousands of years. Later a number of internet sites appeared dealing with their interpretation of the Sedona Vortex. I do not agree 100% with the internet sites, but they appear to know that a natural force exists in the Sedona redrocks Vortex. This series I am working on is my 2017 September camping and survival trip. I added some older pics to complete my story, and dated the older stock pics. Not everything goes like planned when you drive through the back-country and some problems came up on my ... read more

On our last adventure out west, my husband and I were fortunate to travel to Sedona, Arizona. We made our way to this gorgeous landscape from our arrival in Scottsdale, Arizona. After spending our first night in the city, we asked the hotel clerk at the front desk where we should visit as we made our way to an area of the world where, as we were told by many of our friends and family, we could experience some of the most beautiful sunrises imaginable. She suggested taking a loop around Jerome, a quirky mountainside town full of art galleries, offbeat eateries and shops. We were up for an adventure, and taking the backwoods route seemed like a more daring and exciting idea than going down the highway the entire time, so we heeded her advice. ... read more

L'Arizona est l'état où se trouve le Grand Canyon, comme nous l'avons déjà vu, le plan B est d'aller voir Sedona, une petite ville de 10,000 habitants à 50 Km de Flagstaff où se trouve notre camping. Justement en parlant du camping (à 7000 pieds d'altitude) nous avons connu le 0C pendant la nuit (pas chaud!), le jour ça monte à 24C. Il paraît qu'à Sedona on attrape la 'Red rock fever' (la fièvre des rochers rouges)...vous verrez par vous même! Une belle promenade du samedi qui valait le détour!... read more

It’s my second time visiting Sedona and its magical Red Rocks. A few months ago, Alec and I took a trip from Colorado to California together with my parents who were visiting from Italy. It was such an incredible experience! We got to explore Boulder and the Rocky Mountains, to cross the territories of Buffalo Bill, see Veil and then drive through all of Utah , down until the Grand Canyon. It’s hard to pick the one place that stood out the most. They were all unforgettable. But one particular town stuck into my mind for its magical aura: Sedona and the beautiful Red Rocks that surround it. img=http://littlebitesofbeauty.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/Ambra-Alec-Chapel-of-the-Holy-Cross-Copy.jpg Back then, we didn’t have a lot of time left to explore and we only dedicated a handful of hours to this beauty... read more
