Vermillion Sunset

Believe it or not but these shots have not been enhanced in any way, shape, or form. My wife and I had gone for an evening walk in southern Arizona and I captured these awesome pics with our new digital camera that we purchased at Christmas time.





These photos were taken by me with our Nikon D80
ON: 05Jan08 5:51 to 5:52 PM
SPECS: JPEG (8-bit) Normal
Image Size: Large (3872 x 2592)
Lens: VR 70-300mm F/4.5-5.6 G

Oh my GOSH! How I want to stroll in southern Arizona!!! Even if I didn't have my camera - I would just love to WITNESS that in person! Gorgeous! (and I certainly believe it! I never underestimate God's paintbrush!)
