Sedona flood photos by Misha Saez

Misha Saez, who works at Tlaquepaque, shot these two photos of the flash flood damage shortly after the waters subsided on Thursday 10 Sept.
"I caught Superman sitting, with a shellshocked look on his face... it all happened so fast, he didn't have time to act!"
"and this guy really went out of his way to avoid those pedestrians!"

Rain gods wouldn't destroy CFG's Sedona, right?

Nothing like shamelessly taking advantage of a tragedy to further one's political career.

Vote CFG!

In 2012!

(Hope you all saw my photos up on NBC Channel 12 and Channel Fox 10 tonight).

Sedona Flood photo #48, map & video


Map of the damage to Tlaquepaque.

I shot this at the far end of Tlaquepaque near Plaza de la Fuenta. Sorry for the brevity, but I wanted to save batteries for the later photos.
Traffic begins to get back to normal. Anyone can use these photos. E-mail me at foxthepoet@yahoo.com for the full originals.

The entrance to the Tlaquepaque parking lot. Anyone can use these photos. E-mail me at foxthepoet@yahoo.com for the full originals.

Sedona Flood photo #46

Looking toward the Tlaquepaque employee parking lot beyond the caution tape. I heard one of the employees earlier state that she was quitting in a week and didn't have any insurance, so she's doubly out of luck.

Sedona Flood photo #40 Patio de Las Rosas

This is the center of Tlaquepaque's Patio de Las Rosas, looking north. That thing in the middle is the 7-foot tall elk on its side. The caution tape is up due to the gas leak, caused by the car. Please not the yellow "FLT" sticker on the upper left of the license plate: a tourist rental.
