smoking rock !
Devils Garden area, Arches N.P, ThanksGiving 2011
some of those names that ancient people (native Indians for example) gave to places (and people) were based on the characteristics of a place and how they observed them. if I were an Indian I would have named this as smoking rock . Let me actually take that liberty and name this, as I am an Indian too (not the one Columbus discovered) ;)
Gorgeous shot!! The title goes very well with this shot!! You have a very good eye :)
Thank you AJ ! It’s still a hit and miss case when it comes to coming up with titles so I am glad this came out well…
on the ‘good eye’, my optometrist might not agree with you ! :p
This is beautiful! You have had some great photos in your travels!
Thanks David. my travels are usually photo trips in disguise (much to the disappointment of those innocent who accompany me)
Fabulous! Isn’t it interesting how photo opportunities like this can happen? I have a similar one that I took at Bryce Canyon.
yeah skies in the deserts, especially in winter do turn up some weird and interesting cloud patterns to be explored.
You captured that blue sky perfectly. Gorgeous shot!
there wasn’t much skill required to capture the blueness. Just point it towards the sky :)
it is always good to have blue skies (and sunny days) in November, something of a rarity in where I live :)
Beautiful shot. Love the title. :)
I am usually title challenged in that I spend a lot more time on thinking and finalizing a title than the actual blog content so it is a bit of a relief and excitement when a title works once in a while ! Glad u liked it !
Brilliant title! And cool that you’ve named the rock ;-) It’s a lovely image with the rocks lit beautifully by the sun.
I am pretty sure it has a name but i will pretend it didn’t until i named it :) . The colors in the sky (and especially the clouds) made my camera very happy that day. I will be posting more of my rockscapes from that day soon ..
Great name and fit the scene :)
Thank you Haslinda and I am pleased to know that you think the title fits the scene :)
Nice!
Thanks Rob
