Great American Road Trip-Day 5 Review


Today was going to be what I would have considered "the boring day". We decided to drive up from Albuquerque to Monument Valley, Utah to see the natural red rock formations out in the middle of the area. I don't really love shooting landscapes, so I knew that it would not be a big day for me picture-wise, but we had the MOST fun of our trip so far!

Monument Valley is probably best known for photos like these:







And we did see some horses:



But since they'd had a bit of snow recently, the normally rocky but dry road had tons of big puddles and rougher than usual terrain. It's a good thing we were in a Hummer! We had some fun off-roading, splashing around, and making our own Hummer ads like this:





But the real fun was when we decided to drive through the biggest puddle at full speed...well, you'll just have to look at the video in **BECKER'S BLOG** to see how fun it really was!

Here's a couple stills, one of the Hummer tearing through a big puddle, one of the pattern the dirt made on our sunroof:





Also (and I'm reposting this from yesterday as I will for the next few days), I will definitely be selling prints from this trip soon. If you're interested in being notified about my fine art prints when they go on sale, as well as some upcoming seminars, items for sale, and a new line of products just for girls, just shoot me a quick email to info@jcsphoto.com! You don't even need to write me a note if you don't want, it's just to give me your email address so I know you're interested. I promise I won't spam you too much :). Boys can sign up too! If you sign up you'll find out about stuff I'm not going to post here, as well as get discounts. Plus,I will just like you better. :)

Check out Becker's Day 5 for an amazing video of our fun in the hummer!
