Photo Of The Day – Red Rocks Crazy Patterns

Photo Of The Day - Crazy patterns

Title: Red Rocks Crazy Patterns

Location: Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, Nevada, USA, North America (36°9’45.449″ N 115°25’17.574″ W)

Description: The patterns in the sandstone cliffs of the Red Rocks Canyon NCA are a treat for drones. Also because drone are even allowed there (which means I met a few other pilots this day).

I don’t like using a drone just to take “Hey look! I’m up high!” photos. I use a drone like I would any other camera: to capture the natural beauty of the landscape and share that view with the world.


I have started two new photography learning series on my other blog: Photography Basics – A 43 Day Adventure, and its companion 40 Photography Experiments. The series are designed to unravel the mysteries of photography, helping you can take better pictures. Subscribe here to receive all the updates and bonus material.
