Monument Valley

Sometimes you just get lucky. Twice a year, as the sun sets, the shadow of the West Mitten butte is perfectly cast upon the East Mitten butte. This phenomenon draws spectators and photographers from around the world. I didn't even know this was a thing. I just happened to be doing a time lapse from the balcony of our hotel room and the sun popped out from behind the clouds for a few minutes and I noticed the shadow.
