Although it doesn’t look like it, this is a picture of a Navajo Indian (or should I say Native American?). Yes, they wear jeans and shirts like everyone else in the USA. Apparently, he was riding his horse in Monument Valley, and stopped at that cliff to take a look at the surroundings. I caught him, while he was looking directly into my lens.

Although Bryce Canyon is a truely amazing and astonishing place, I saw this little chipmonk in the corner of my eye. It did some poses, before running away hastily. Just enough to get this picture.

Mirror, mirror on the car…

Mirror, mirror on the car...
NIKON D80 - F 8 - 52 mm - 1/130 sec - iso200

While sitting in the passenger seat, I saw these amazing clouds reflecting in the mirror and the window. I just couldn’t resist! The (unreadable) statement on the mirror “Caution: objects me be closer than they appear” was also true in this case.
