Front Row Seat

To get this shot, I set my camera on a tripod the next rock over and set the timer for 20 seconds (as long as my camera allows). I then set it to take 9 photos, giving me more time to get in place. Once I released the shutter, I moved as quickly and CAREFULLY as I could to get in place. The first three photos were taken without me since I had not arrived to the spot yet. #4 showed me in the process of sitting down, and then I had a few more where I could just sit and relax. The white bird droppings on the rock give authenticity! This is my last photo I'll be posting from my morning at Valley of Fire State Park. I had an awesome time, and I really hope I make it back some day for more exploring and photography.
