Bryce and Zion 2003

[Nikolai]

In August 2003 my dad, my youngest daughter Helen and me took a trip to Grand, Bryce and Zion canyons. Since Smugmug Shootout 2006 (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=12592) is going to cover Bryce and Zion, I thought I'd put some visual material, so those who's gonna go can prepare, and those who are not - still some time to change your mind:-)

What a beautifiul place to be with a camera.Thanks for taking me there.I realy like the colors in these ...MikeI was really blessed to be there with my 505V and being able to take those shots. I do home I obtained more skills (and better gear) to make next May if not truly spectacular, then at least a tad better..
