Throwing, sprinting and 5K’s are just warmups for my photog wife

Chris, my wife of 29 great years, runs sprints in masters meets, trains with some world-class masters throwers in San Diego and ran the Carlsbad 5000 for the fifth time Sunday. But as she once told an opponent: “This isn’t the most interesting thing about me.” In fact, Chris takes spectacular photos. Latest batch from our Arizona vacation are now posted on Flickr. As reported earlier, we drove 2,300 miles and brought home 2,300 pictures in our three digital Nikons. We visited the most colorful spots of northern Arizona and southern Utah. Check out Chris’ shots (and a few of my own)!

    Great photographs and a great time to shoot since you were able to get a variety of weather conditions. The shots of snow on Bryce’s hoodoos are particularly spectacular.

    Great pics! Thanks for sharing. Particularly enjoyed the ‘shaft of light’ pics.

    Beautiful photos Chris. They brought back wonderful memories for me. Larry and I took my mum and dad, who were visiting the US for the first time, to the Grand Canyon two years ago. It blew the Aussies away!

    These are all breathtaking in beauty. They should be on a magazine cover or entered in a contest. I sent them to all my friends to enjoy.

    The patience it took, to get the right picture at the right time. That drop of water was outstanding, as well as the sunlight streaming inside the cavern.

    Chris how did you get the animals to pose for you?
    The woman in her home displaying her arts was interesting. Any more pics of people doing things?
