This week’s Foto Friday Fun features images chosen by nine readers from my photo files with a strong showing of America’s Southwest and a touch of South Africa. Hope you continue to enjoy as I share the memories.
George & Suzie chose #4116. There’s nothing like seeing lions close up at Kruger National Park, South Africa, no matter how many times.
Mary Lou chose #7476. A friend living in Joshua Tree, California collects stuff and landscapes with recyclables. She also has a thing for old RV trailers and after renovations are available to stay in, not indefinitely, at Buzzards Roost. But they are unique accommodations for visiting the near by Joshua Tree National Park.
Donna chose #1117, just some of the amazing sandstone bluffs seen along Johnson Canyon Road in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in southern Utah. This shot was my first of many visits from 2011.
John & Pam chose #6543. Finally broke the chain of coincidences unless they’ve hung out at Tsitsikamma National Park, South Africa.
Diane chose #9994. She’s on a roll with Grand Canyon photos which are great teasers for her June visit. Here we see a September, 2015 view from the Grand Lodge as clouds seem to crawl over the temples.
Sallie chose #2016, a beautiful Christmas Eve sunset over the Santa Rosa Mountains from camp in Anza-Borrego Desert State 2014.
Sherry chose #8999. She likes rock so here’s a close up of the sandstone found in Coyote Buttes North Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness on the way to The Wave.
Jodee chose #547, one of a two photo panorama. I love the golden glow seen on the canyon walls, which she may have seen this week, from Yavapai Point on the South Rim Grand Canyon National Park. This shot from a visit there in January 2012.
Shane chose #5311 from the 2014 Native American Heritage Days at the North Rim Grand Canyon National Park.
My choice this week a stunning sunset from the RV IMAX windows taken 3-27-16.
Please join in for next week by leaving a number between 1 and 9999 in your comment below. A big thanks to everyone for playing along with Foto Friday Fun and allowing me to share these photographs and memories.
Do you have a favorite this week?
More wonderful photos keep popping up love them .1648
Thanks George. Have you down for #1648.
Seeing lions up close never loses it’s magic. The first time I heard a lion roar close by (in Kruger National Park) my heart almost stopped ! That lioness looks like she’s been around. I love the sandstone image and the sunset is spectacular. Thanks for sharing. (((Hugs))) Jo
Thanks Jo. I too remember that first sighting and the thrill has never diminished.
I’ll play. #1223
Thanks for playing along. Have you down for #1223.
Another fun group of photos:)

Enjoyed them all. Please put me down for 1252 for next week.
Thanks Mary Lou. Have you down for #1252.
No particular favourites this week, they are all great photos. I hope I can get some great photos of the canyon with the changing light, yours are always superb. 9995 for next week please. Diane
Thanks Diane. It’s hard not to get good photos at the canyon. Have you down for #9995.
Great assortment of photos as you have taught us to expect from you. I love the lion pic especially.
My number for next week is 8797. It just popped into my head!
Thanks Yogi. It helps to take lots of photos to get the better ones. Have you down for #8797.
Seeing your lion reminds me I’d rather not run into one on the trails! I love the Christmas Eve sunset. (1253)
I’ll bet you’re a little more aware of lions after your spring break. Are they really around at 10,000+ feet? Have you down for #1253.
I’m loving my sunset (what a nice Christmas gift that was for you)! And the lion and all the other scenery, but I have to say that the serious little dancer at the Native American Days is my favorite picture this time. My number is 7632. I just asked Bill to give me a random number. No idea why he chose that. He just said it and looked at me funny ;>)
Thanks Sallie. That little dancer stole the show. Thanks Bill for #7632 for next week.
This week I choose 1960
Have you down for #1960. A very good year. 😉
Love the line picture at the top. My little dancer is exceptional also.
#1440 this week, please.
Thanks Shane. Have you down for #1440.
Few things are as wonderful as red rock for beauty other than maybe Lions, the Grand Canyon and Native American Heritage days. May I have 4212 for next time?
It’s all good. Have you down for #4212.
Can’t believe my photo this week is from the south rim 🙂 What a great time of day to capture this incredible place. Love the lioness and the heritage day dancers. 677 for next week please.
Funny coincidence. Have you down for #677.
