Monument Valley at Dusk
Last week I was lucky to be able to visit Monument Valley for a second time. Once again I was in awe of the majestic buttes rising from the desert floor and excited to photograph them but somewhat disappointed in the cloudless skies.Some clouds might help make the scene more dramatic but it wasn't meant to be. All I could do was wait and hope the sunset would help me out a bit. As the sun fell in the sky the cliff wall I stood upon slowly crept towards the valley's three most prominent buttes. Then, just before the valley was swallowed by shadow and only for a brief moment the sky finally produced some color as the last light of the day kissed the top of the towers. Not a bad end of the day.
