Red Rock Canyon, Nevada

Jul 15

The next time you are in Las Vegas, Nevada take time out to visit Red Rock Canyon. Just 17 miles away, it is a quick drive to the canyon, and you will get to see some great sites. We visited the canyon in July 2006 and really enjoyed the scenery. There are lots of things to do including hiking, rock climbing and horseback riding. If you want to see the opposite of man made mountains in Las Vegas, check out the Red Rock Canyon and see what the Mojave Desert has to offer.

Scenic Drive The scenic loop is open every day of the year with times changing slightly according to the season. It features a one-way 13-mile scenic drive.

Photography has remained a constant in my life since I was a child. I currently shoot with Nikon D7100 and a Sony NEX-6. My iPhones have gotten a lot of use as well (currently an iPhone 6+). I take pictures of just about anything, but my favorite is cars, all types of cars. Over the years I have abandoned the tripod, and do more run and gun stuff. I am pretty good at holding the camera steady, however once in a while I dig out the Manfrotto and get a few pics. I have a photo website that contains over 8,200 pictures at Photos.BhagaVideo.com, and my blog is at Harold-Brown.com. I do everything for my own enjoyment so you will see some great pics and some not so great pics. Many of my pictures are just quick shots to remember the day. I am constantly looking at what I did in the past and changing my likes and style as time goes on. Always ready for the latest and greatest and never stuck in the past.
