    Tour of Arizona - Petrified Forest (Set 5)

    Here's the last set from the Petrified Forest. These are from an area called 'Newspaper Rock'. It was called this because the native people who lived here around 800-1000 years ago used this rock to record hundreds of petroglyphs.

    The first pic shows the rock as I could see it from my vantage point. I could barely see any petroglyphs with the naked eye. However using the 12x optical zoom on my Panasonic FZ20, these became crystal clear.

    Thanks. I really like this camera. It takes great shots and the 12x optical zoom and Leica lens is top-notch.
