My first day at Arches National Park (Utah)

I will be completely honest with you.  I absolutely hate... okay, I'm over exaggerating, I don't like to take landscape pictures.  One of the reasons why I don't like taking them is because I don't think I'm very good at them.

I hiked all day long today.  My knees feel as if it's about to bust and... well, that's pretty much it for all the physical pain but I am quite tired.  The point is, my knees hurt like hell and I have mediocre pictures to show for it.  boooooo.



(Is this really inappropriate?  really?  but it's just a rock folks, a friggin' rock!  Haha, okay, okay, may be you can say that this "rock" can pass as a phallic symbol).

...or just say, "that friggin rock looks like a penis Fred.  What the hell are you thinking?"



anyways... 



we stopped by Vegas for 20 minutes to rest.  I took the two pictures of Venetian with my point and shoot, which explains the noise (the grainy, dirty stuff)




After about 10 more hours of driving, I tried to take a picture of the sun:



FAILED.



And then I tried to take a picture of the rocks



...which, I must admit, was pretty interesting at first.  But after taking pictures of rocks for the next 8 hours, all the rocks pretty much look the same.  May be this is my problem.  I've been staring at rocks all day long that I think all of my pictures are pretty much the same things. 














This is an "arch" and it resembles Utah.






hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
