Photo Hunt--Theme: Red

Nature gives us quite a few choices for this week's theme. I had red roses, red wildflowers, red sunsets. But I decided that the Red Rock Canyons of the Southwest would be a good choice. We just got back from the Southwest, and when I wore my hiking boots the other day as the best option for the snow, I left little bits of red soil behind in my snowy white footprints.

Bryce Canyon, Utah

Grand Canyon, Arizona

Zion Canyon, Utah

(There are more photos of Red Rock areas further down in my thanksgiving trip posts.)

the red rocks of Sadona Az would have been nice with this post, an excellent one I must say.

Thanks for the Flanders Field, it is one of my favorite poems, maybe because of the respect I have for soldiers.

Those red nature pictures are so pretty. I can understand why myh husband said we went all the way to Australia to see Utah and Arizona.

Thanks for visiting my hunt.

Great shot from great places. My choice was the Red Canyon this time, and I could swear that your GC shot was taken from the same spot I have been in this last summer.
