The Prescott Peavine Trail, through the Dells starts on East side on the North end of Watson Lake. 


In the beginning.


The colorama of the Dells!!





This is only the Peavine portion, as the Dells cover a fairly large area. The Dells are composed of red lava and with the sun setting have a beautiful color. Some where on the trail I discovered the better setting on my Nikon P1, slow learner that I am.

There are 66 pictures from various times there.

Havasupai Grand Canyon

Photographs at scampco on Picasa http://picasaweb.google.com/scampco/.

Alot of people go to the Havaspai Entrance to the Grand Canyon to hike down to the falls, ride a pack train, or a helicopter.









Below is congestion in Grand Canyon. Captured a helicopter, 2 backpackers, 2 pack trains?



I went there once with my Nikon P1 and it was point and click. Later I was to find much better settings.

The Grand Canyon National Park South Rim

Photographs below and at scampco on Picasa http://picasaweb.google.com/scampco/.

My first visit to the Grand Canyon with my Nikon P1 was pretty much point and click. Later I discovered some new much better settings. At 7.8 megapixels viewed on a Irfan Viewer I was wowed! Ok I am left behind as the cameras have evolved and I am sure there are professional photographers put me to shame, I have commented on some of them.

But I am just enjoying sharing some of that which they did not emulate.
