Description
This photo captures one of the many beautiful red-rock buttes of Sedona, AZ, the Courthouse Butte.
Sedona is an Arizona desert town near Flagstaff that’s surrounded by red-rock buttes, steep canyon walls and pine forests. It’s noted for its mild climate and vibrant arts community. Uptown Sedona is dense with New Age shops, spas and art galleries. On the town’s outskirts, numerous trailheads access Red Rock State Park, which offers bird-watching, hiking and picnicking spots.
Courthouse Butte is a butte just north of the Village of Oak Creek, Arizona, south of Sedona in Yavapai County. Summit elevation is 5,454 feet. It is just east of Bell Rock. Geologically, Courthouse Butte is composed of horizontally bedded sedimentary rock of the Permian Supai Formation.

Beautiful red-rock buttes indeed. Another interesting capture, Felix! - too bad someone took all your clouds away.

Hi Ricardo, Thank you for the nice comment. This photo was shot in a cloudless day. As usual I took three exposures for each shot and the long exposure photo looked the best. I decided to leave the sky overexposed so the sky will not distract viewers from seeing the beauty of the red rocks. I understand it might violate the cardinal rules of normal photography! Thank you again. Felix
