Utah's pièce de résistance, the Delicate Arch in Arches National Park stands 20 metres tall against a backdrop of the snow-capped La Sal Mountains. During my visit in late October, the arch was hit with strong golden light as the sun was setting.

September 19, 2024 - Our next stop at Arches National Park was to the iconic Delicate Arch. It required a vigorous hike since we parked at the Lower Delicate Arch Viewpoint. Tara, Nancy, Mike and I were the only people from our group that decided to take the hike.
Another shot of Delicate Arch. Posted to promote my dad's photostream that I just helped him set up. Take a look at this INCREDIBLE sunrise shot of Delicate Arch that he took many years ago here. My Dad has been taking wildlife and landscape photography for almost 40 years and I'm glad I was able to convince to put some of his stuff on here.
These delicate, delightfully airy seedheads turn abosulutely demonic in their proliferation of dandelions. Think of that the next time you or your child gleefully blow the seeds. View in original size for an amazing look at this weed.
"The great events of life often leave one unmoved; they pass out of consciousness, and, when thinks of them, become unreal. Even the scarlet flowers of passion seem to grow in the same meadow as the poppies of oblivion. We reject the burden of their memory, and have anodynes against them. But the little things, the things of no moment, remain with us. In some tiny ivory cell the brain stores the most delicate, and the most fleeting impressions."
— Oscar Wilde

The Russian Sage is blooming, and the misty clouds of purple spires are very attractive. The fragrant flowers appear to be delicate, but once you plant a Russian Sage you better like it for life! Their roots are quite tenacious!
This is the first time I have tried actually shooting in black and white with my 7D, I did not realise that it had so many settings, including a few filters for monotone. This one was SOOC with no setting adjusted. I really liked the high key effect the black and white gave this small orange rose. I think I am going to have a lot of fun here. Not sure that I will get much time to get out and about before this assignment is due, so I think I may have the theme my shots around items I find at home and work :-0

I remember my very first glimpses of Delicate Arch. It was on a stormy evening. Ominous clouds covered up the better part of the sky while a steady downpour washed away any hopes of getting good light there. Then, out of nowhere, the clouds on the western horizon parted and gave way to sunlight, resulting in a rainbow that arched over the nearby wash.
And out there, perched delicately on a sharp slope lay the massive arch of Delicate Arch, seemingly defying gravity and geology in a graceful confluence of beauty and color, both exaggerated by the deep orange light lighting up the sides of the arch.
I vowed to get closer the next day, and I arrived there after a short hike under the harsh mid-day sun. The short shadows resulted in an absolute lack of any depth perception in the images I shot, a factor only exaggerated when I removed all the colors from the scene. I, however, still like the image for the deep shadows and textures on the arch.
This particular shot was composed with a wide angle lens and shot at ISO 200, F11 at 1/125s

Your beauty is like that of a flower,
Such delicacy and fragrance that everyone knows,
The loveliness satisfies even the most obscured,
And beauty such as this can't be described in one word.

March 2009
This was a black day for me. After visiting Delicate Arch last June (2008), I wanted to return with Margie to show her the beauty of the location, and to capture some images I had in my mind's eye. Well the left knee was really bothering me, and this 1.5 mile trail is virtually uphill all the way. I also didn't anticipate the warm temperature (for March), and I did not pack my bandana or neck cooler. We brought plenty of water, but that was insufficient to be comfortable or safe. About 7/8 of the way up, I had to stop. I started getting nauseated and chilled, and I still had to walk back. I stopped and rested, cried, and after that catharsis, I started back down. I was pissed. So instead, Margie and I walked out to the Delicate Arch viewpoint, and I shot this pano instead.

My knee will get better and Margie promised we'd try it again.
