Red

Iron's Red
The color of the soil in this photo, taken at Cedar Breaks National Monument in southern Utah, is caused by iron oxide. Parts of it have turned white through "bleaching", a natural process wherein water dissolves the iron oxide and strips its color. Pretty interesting: http://geology.utah.gov/online/pdf/pi-77.pdf
A Touch of Red
The sky painter has been working again.

Flower Amid the Thorns
Yesterday, my father, brother, daughter and I went camping and after breakfast went on a hike. We had a great time, and among other things, found this cactus in bloom. It's amazing that such a beautiful flower emerges from a plant like this.
Red on White
Lately, I’ve been getting into photographing vivid color. The other day there was a cloud cover and it made the colors stand out more than usual. This photo is straight from the camera…no post-processing. I love the strong contrast between the deep red and the white snow.

Summer Treat
I love the winter, but I do look forward to juicy watermelon on a hot summer day.
