Our First View of the Painted Desert
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
The first stop in Arizona while on our trip west was the Petrified Forest National Park. After stopping at the Painted Desert Visitor Center, we drove to Tiponi Point, where we got our first view of the beautiful Painted Desert.

What a beautiful blue sky.
Amazing beauty.
Great shot George, also love the line drawing too.
Beautiful! But again, the sky interests me more! I guess I really have a thing about that! But the whole picture looks like it was taken with some kind of telephoto lens or something, the sky just goes on ahead forward forever, you can see it way ahead, you know what I mean? The same for the desert, a very unusual effect!
That is very beautiful. But I bet it's too hot too. ^_^

It's amazing.
Must be very hot these days out your way.
A gorgeous sky and a beautiful view beneath it.
I was there many years ago but your photo is making me want to go back!
George, God made a beautiful world and you capture it well with your camera!
that is stunningly beautiful.
It looks so beautiful!
I hope I get a chance someday to see it for myself.
I've scrolled down and WOW that was a lot of snow. I like snow but they might be a little much for me on a regular basis. :)
Absolutely beautiful !
So serene, yet it can be a brutal place without the right equipment.
Love that sky !

Looks like a painting. Deserts look beautiful too.
Lovely photo, George. It really shows off the colors of the sand hills and washes.
soo lovely shot! i love the colour and the composition!
You and Betsy took some of the most awesome pictures of the west I have ever seen.
Beautiful wide angle view !
the desert, looks lovely, esp from your photo, but can be deadly. I have been watching too many "I shouldn't be alive shows."
i have always wanted to see the painted desert AND the petrified forest. this is gorgeous
Fantastic picture! The desert is full of colors!
George, this is amazing! Beautiful enough to bring tears to one's eyes!
Stark beauty thats for sure. I'll be getting acquainted with this state shortly as my son and family just moved to the Mesa area. :)
Wonderful colors! Marvelous shot.
Good week, sir.
Hug.
Gorgeous, exotic, color!
Breathtaking!!1
This is a beautiful image and that deep blue sky certainly adds color, contrast and interest. I quite enjoyed the line drawing also.
Fantastic shot George, wouldn't fancy breaking down out there though.
