It was cold, rainy and miserable last week, so my wife and I packed up and headed for sunshine at the Valley of Fire. This untold photographic treasure was worth the 728 mile one-day drive. We stayed at the campground three days and hiked several areas exploring the incredible rock formations. The opportunities were endless. Sorry to post so many here....you can see the other photos and compositions in my gallery.

    Got ya beat: I travelled over 2,000 mile one-way to get to VoF! Of course, it only took me about 6 hours, because I took a plane to Vegas and drove the rest of the way...

    I've only been to VoF once, but I fell for the place like a ton of bricks. It's one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen, and your pics have got me jonesing for another fix.

    #4 and #9 are my faves.
    What I said when I saw the Grand Canyon for the first time: "The wide ain't wide enough and the zoom don't zoom enough!"
