Arizona Treks

Last weekend was a very different weekend.  It was stormy the whole weekend.  I went out looking for something to shoot hoping that the clouds would create something interesting but alas, I found nothing  that was of interest.  After noon I headed to Photomark and took Randy (my youngest son) with me.  Most of the interest was on the East side but I had to bring him back so he could work Saturday evening so I didn't venture off to the far east valley.

Sunday it was stormy again and the large format class was having a field trip to Goldfield ghost town and Lost Dutchman State Park.  I started early and waited in the rain at Lost Dutchman for about 90 minutes before heading over to Goldfield.  We shot there for a while then everyone went over to Lost Dutchman.  Another storm cell moved in shortly after we got there so the good light was lost and we had more clouds and rain.  As I left the clouds were dissipating again and there were some spectacular views of Flatiron in the Superstitions.  So I missed the best show of the day and I think sunset there was probably spectacular.  Next weekend more storms are forecast so perhaps another trip to the area is in store.
