    First time elk hunting in AZ 6B

    Keep track of the weather and possible heavy snow that will close access. There are only a few access roads. I recall one season where hunters had to abandon their travel tralers until spring. A hunt a few years ago had heavy snow and hardly anyone got in.

    Soft images

    If on a tripod, is the image stabilization turned off, using a cable release, 2 second shutter delay?

    What do you think would be the best setup?

    If you decide on a teleconverter, 1.4x may offer better results than 2x. With the TC, the autofocus may also have difficulties in low light. I would try the 150-600 alone before investing in a TC. Use a tripod, Image stabilation turned off, cable release, 2 second shutter delay.

    Snowdona

    Flagstaff currently has its second snowiest winter on record and the latest storm brought 30" to the house. I made my way down to Sedona before the storm and before the highways were closed. Ten inches of white goodness fell upon the red rocks. This trip was also the maiden voyage for a new...

    Winter Conditions so far…

    Thanks for the winter reports so far. With 12 NR points for antelope, I will be paying attention to the winter snowkill reports. I had a nice hunt in unit 64 back in 2010 and have been accruing points since. I figure this is the year to cash them in as I doubt I will draw an elk or antelope...

    Colorful Colorado

    It is difficult to say "no" to the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado. Seems that each year, Utah and the eastern Sierras make voices heard, but Colorado shouts louder. So again, I pointed the truck northeast from Flagstaff and spent the first week of October around Durango, Ouray and...

    Bulls and Bolts

    With the summer rains and thunderstorms starting, I went up to the Grand Canyon for a couple of days to photograph some lightning and elk. The lightning was often evasive to me, mostly off in the distance or hidden behind the clouds. One six point bull did oblige as it munched on the oak leaves.

    Painted Desert and Moenave Valley

    A recent phototrip with a couple of friends from Colorado had us in remote areas in northern Arizona. The first evening had us overlooking a beautiful section of the Painted Desert with its colored Chinle formation. The next evening was spent in a pinnacle-filled filled valley surrounded by...

    Current Drought Conditions in Coconino County?

    Pretty dry. Only 3" here in Flagstaff this year so far. Only 1.4" at the Grand Canyon airport.

    Night over Sedona

    I finally got out and photographed something- first time in over 2 months. In this image, the milky way arches over Bell Rock, Courthouse Butte, Lee Mountain, Gibraltar, and Twin Buttes near Sedona. I had been wanting to make this night panorama for a few years, and finally spent a few hours in...

    Rain snow or shine, Sedona is beautiful, but the traffic can be nutz.

    White on the Red Rocks

    Winter may bring a white sugary coating on the red sandstone of Sedona maybe once or twice a winter. The last week of February had one such occurrence. I had not photographed the snow there in a few years, so with the storm coming, I made my way down the hill from Flagstaff to Sedona so as not...

    Elk CC hits.

    One year after applying, I had a dream about canoeing across Apache Lake to hunt desert bighorn, Alas, it turned out to be only a dream.

    This morning I came across this file that needed editing. Most mornings are spent with coffee in search of old files that have escaped prior editing. This image is from a June trip to the Paria Plateau several years ago. It reminded me that I need to return when the weather warms a bit.

    Antelope unit 64 (best time to hunt it)

    I had 64 about 12 years ago. Hunted two days around Sept 21-22 and saw two other trucks. Weather was pleasant and the roads dry.

    Hunt Arizona In 2022?

    With La Nina, the rest of the winter and spring may be drier than normal, although this current week of rain and snow is welcome. Weather guys are saying El Nino will return late summer.

    Back in the early 1980s when I was living in South Texas, I motored across Falcon Lake along the Texas-Mexico border to the submerged, old town of Zapata in a 14' aluminum and 10 HP Johnson. I do not know if I'd make that trip today. I took a few black and white images, but have since lost the...

    Colors of Colorado

    Many of you know that I have been shooting a Nikon more than a Winchester the past several years. As life progresses, interests change also. I do find landscape photography a lot like hunting in that one has to research and scout locations, check the weather, hike in the dark to get to...

    Summer rains have made the grass green and two afternoons of heavy rain had water flowing over the normally dry falls at the head of Sycamore Canyon outside of Flagstaff.
