Description
A Black and White Photograph in the style of Ansel Adams of a major Mountain in Sedona Arizona. Photographed with a Nikon D3 and 200mm VR lens Post processing completed in Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop CS5. Black and White was chosen for this image for its dramatic impact, and long life. Research has proven the archival life of Black and White images is far superior to those in color.
Sedona is a city that straddles the county line between Coconino and Yavapai counties in the northern Verde Valley region of the U.S. state of Arizona.
Sedona's main attraction is its stunning array of red sandstone formations, the Red Rocks of Sedona. The formations appear to glow in brilliant orange and red when illuminated by the rising or setting sun. The Red Rocks form a breathtaking backdrop for everything from spiritual pursuits to the hundreds of hiking and mountain biking trails.
The famous red rocks of Sedona are formed by a layer of rock known as the Schnebly Hill Formation. The Schnebly Hill Formation is a thick layer of red to orange-colored sandstone found only in the Sedona vicinity. The sandstone, a member of the Supai Group, was deposited during the Permian Period.
