The Granite Dells are a geological feature characterized by exposed granite rock formations that have been sculpted by wind and water over millions of years into unusual shapes and patterns.  The term “dells” refers to the valleys or low areas between the granite formations.  Nestled among these natural wonders lies Watson Lake, a reservoir formed in 1915 when early settlers dammed Granite Creek. This juxtaposition of geological history and human intervention creates a serene oasis, inviting visitors to ponder the passage of time and marvel at the forces of nature.  Watson Lake and the Granite Dells are in Prescott, Arizona, USA.

Camelback Mountain is a prominent feature of the Sonoran Desert in southern Arizona.  It is part of the McDowell Mountain Range and is composed primarily of Precambrian granite.  The mountain has been weathered by rain, wind and other forces of nature over millions of years.  This erosion has given the mountain a distinctive hump-back “camel” shape thus leading to its name.  The area around Camelback Mountain is home to a variety of cacti, including saguaros, as well as a range of other desert plants and animals, such as jackrabbits, rattlesnakes, and Gila monsters. The mountain's summit provides a critical habitat for a number of bird species, including hawks, vultures, and eagles.  This view of the surrounding area was photographed from the Echo Canyon trail on Camelback Mountain near Phoenix, Arizona, USA.

The Verde Valley (Spanish: Valle Verde or Green Valley) is a lush valley in central Arizona and one of a few riparian habitats in the state.  The Verde River runs through the valley and is joined by Oak Creek, Beaver Creek and West Clear Creek. The Verde River is one of the state’s remaining free-flowing river systems and provides critical habitat for fish and wildlife.  The valley is bounded by the Mogollon Rim to the north and Mingus Mountain to the south.  The Verde Valley includes about 714 square miles in the center of Arizona and is about 100 miles north of the Phoenix metropolitan area.  The valley is also noted for its many red rock formations.  This fall colored scene of the Verde Valley was photographed from the Eagle’s Nest Trail near Oak Creek in Red Rock State Park near Sedona, Arizona, USA.

Monument Valley, on the Arizona - Utah border, gives us some of the most iconic and enduring images of the American Southwest.  The harsh empty desert is punctuated by many colorful sandstone rock formations.  It can be a photographer's dream to capture the ever-changing play of light on the buttes and mesas.  Even to the first-time visitor, Monument Valley will probably seem very familiar.  This rugged landscape has achieved fame in the movies, advertising and brochures.  It has been filmed and photographed countless times over the years.  If a movie producer was looking for a landscape that epitomizes the Old West, a better location could not be found.  This picture of Camel Butte was photographed from the Monument Valley Road north of Kayenta, Arizona, USA.
