A snowy sunset in Sedona. (Another one of my father's images and one of mine as well)
I don't know what the name of this one is, for some reason I'm thinking "blue light" but I just don't know..
Anywho.. This is a pretty neat one in my opinion and I was there as well that day and got my own shot. I've shared it on here before I'm pretty sure, but.. I might as well share it again for anyone who missed it! Here's mine as well.
Mine is named "Snowy Sunset" and it's a pretty good seller!
People were literally stopped in the middle of the road to watch and take pictures of this shot.. It was kinda dangerous, lol.
But.. That's Sedona.. When there's somethign beautiful like this happening.. Sometimes it literally stops traffic.
These were both shot on the Pentax 6x7 if I remember correctly, I'm not sure what the name of that mountain range is though..
And.. As another bonus, here's a shot of me and my father years ago when we used to print these things ourselves with our huge mach 12 printer! (These days it's too much work and we get others to make them, but it was a fun and exciting adventure to print them ourselves for a while.)
(PS I look like a dork in the picture, haha.)
Lot's of good memories. :) It's been cool to work with my family so much..I think family businesses are getting rarer and rarer, but.. I think it's good in a lot of ways, and I'm grateful I've got to work with and spend so much time with my parents.
Cheers to everyone out there in steemit land! ._.
Wow that's beautiful. Although I've been to Sedona multiple times I've never seen it like that. What a charming town it is.
Well said. I also worked with my father in our pottery studio for 5 years. That is a special time between you and your parents.
Thanks. That's cool to hear you had a similar experience. And yeah.. It is, I think a lot of people end up regretting not spending more time with their parents in their rush to move on with their own life and then when they get older and they're no longer around.. It's too late.. So, yeah.. I am very grateful. A lot of people don't get that chance for various reasons, whether by their own choice or otherwise.

STOPThis is really special bro , these are days you will always remember, even on steemit too , they will be on the blockchain for as long as ever, thanks for the share
That's a cool point in regards to how this stuff will be out there permanently, or at least as long as civilization can keep all the technology together. :) You're welcome for the share, thanks for the thoughtful and interesting comment!
Live limitless, you are welcome my brother all the best to you and your family ,
No wonder all your picture were so awesome...cause its runs in your vein..
You got great mentor mate...
And most of all..really amazed me..
Good luck mate...looking forward for your picture..
Haha. Maybe it does. I dunno. My father was into photography when he was a kid and had a phase, but didn't become professional till much later in life and around when I was a teenager, and.. I tried to resist following in family footsteps, but.. It grew on me more and more and now I love it.. So, whatever the case, however I got here.. I'm glad to be doing this. Thanks for the thoughtful and positive comment and for the good luck as well! Same to you! Good luck!
Awesome photo's of the mountains! You must be able to get a lot of great photographs being so close to so many ranges. I don't do much in photography. I do a bit of landscape modeling with Bryce. I did take an amazing photo today that I am pretty proud of. I would appreciate your honest opinion of it.

Like I said, I'm no photographer I just happened to get extremely lucky today.
Thanks. Glad you appreciated and yes, I do live in an amazing place for it! It's like a photographers dream here. Heh. That's cool you do landscale modeling and do some photography on the side. I checked out your shot and it's a good one! I left a comment and some thoughts, but if you want a lil bit of constructive criticism, I would suggest going into photoshop or an editing program and turning the hotspots down a bit. IE The bright areas. I think if you darkened the bright areas a lil bit it would help a lot! Cheers.
Thank You for the advice. All I know about photography is the basics - point, click, get lucky sometimes. I use Paintshop to tweak my Bryce works. I have Photoshop but rarely use it. My photography knowledge is quite limited. I'll use it on photo's in the future to see if I can maybe make a masterpiece sometime. Your photo's are amazing. I look forward to seeing more of your work. I appreciate your criticisms. Following.
You're welcome. I know a good amount but I kinda consider myself a novice in some ways.. I try to keep it simple and for the most part, you can get great results with a simple point and click kind of style if you're good at being in the right place at the right time and you live somewhere beautiful.
Never heard of paintshop, photoshop is good, but there's also some free ones online that do similar now. Like picmonkey and ipiccy.. Both of those are free and do a lot of the important things photoshop does in regards to editing images.
Thanks for the follow and the nice words about my images, and glad you appreciated the constructive criticism! I'll see you around on here. :)
excellent work
Thanks!
Love the snowy images :P Great photos!
Thanks midgeteg! I also love snow stuff a lot. Definitely more than I used to. Though it's still kinda hard sometimes getting up early to go out into the cold snow to film! Heh.
Epic shot, mate! I've never heard about Sedona before, but after your posts, one would definitely fall in love with its nature! The clouds above the mountain reminded me of the cotton candy! I could say the last pic was taken in the early 2000s? Monitor and keyboard look very old school, have u played Heroes of Might and Magic 3 or UFO series, best games of the epoch :) Cheers mate, have an amazing Sunday!
I remember when computers looked like that! :)
