Delicate Arch
Carved in Entrada Sandstone, this free-standing arch is composed mostly of the Slick Rock Member. The top is a five-foot thick layer of Moab Tongue. A remnant of an ancient fin, the arch today has an opening 45 feet (13.7 meters) high and 33 feet (10 meters) wide.
Water and time have sculpted Delicate Arch, and erosion continues to slowly wear away the features of this mature span. Although it will eventually succumb to the same forces that created it, this majestic arch now stands as an iconic feature of the American West.
Delicate Arch's distinctive shape has inspired such colorful nicknames as "Cowboy Chaps" and "Old Maid's Bloomers."

Shot last December while at Arches National Park - I was experimenting with using the arch to "hide" the bright afternoon sun about an hour and half before sundown.
As we headed toward Dole, a light snow blanketed us, softening the harsh landscape.

Highlight of our Southwest geology tour, the sunset at Delicate Arch is worth the wait.
The fact that you will be joined by a crowd turns the arch into a kind of natural shrine. A truly centering and uplifting experience.
To me, this flower looks like a delicate insect. Or just a delicate flower. I wish i knew what it was called. Heck, its probably some kind of weed.

Delicate Arch in Arches National Park in Southern Utah. This is a different angle then usually seen. It is of the backside of the arch on a very steep incline. This is one of my first HDR attempts.
By far the most famous attraction in Arches National Park is Delicate Arch, its more or less symmetrical shape, and 18m freestanding formation making it a symbol of both the State of Utah and the American Southwest in general. Originally called "the Chaps" and "the Schoolmarm's Bloomers" by local cowboys, it was not officially discovered and given its current name until the 1933 Arches National Monument Scientific Expedition. Ironically it was not even included in park boundaries when Arches National Monument was first established by Pres Herbert Hoover in 1929. It was added when the monument was enlarged in 1938. In 2002 the Olympic Torch Relay passed through the arch.
Everyone (myself included) stops for photos under the arch. Here you can see just how large the arch actually is.

Delicate Arch is a 52-foot-tall freestanding natural arch located in Arches National Park, near Moab in Grand County, Utah, United States.
The arch is the most widely recognized landmark in Arches National Park and is depicted on Utah license plates and a postage stamp commemorating Utah's centennial anniversary of admission to the Union in 1996.
The Olympic torch relay for the 2002 Winter Olympics passed through the arch.
it's a long hike to get to the best vantage points to photograph it.
I reworked my original photo of the Delicate Arch. I used LAB color mode and tried to open up the shadows a little. The colors really become intense as you near sundown. This is the arch that is seen on Utah's license plates.

Well, I decided to go back through the almost 8,000 photos I have taken with my 60D since purchasing it on June 28th and find some classics from the early days of shooting with it.
Here is the 59th photo I took with the 60D, cropped a bit and selective colourized but otherwise straight off the camera!
Hope you all like it!
I discovered at work today that what I thought was 3 days weekend is actually a 4 day weekend, thanks to a civic holiday on Monday, so I am even MORE excited than I was!
Enjoy your upcoming weekend, all my dear flickr friends!
Well, I guess I'll be in the market for a new cherry tree this spring.
I'm rather sad to report that my pretty weeping cherry tree on the front yard is a-goner. 8-((
I noticed last spring that it didn't bloom as brilliantly as usual, and it hardly got any leaves during the summer. On closer examination I realized that it seemed to have picked up some kind of borer bug that attacked it at the base and had basically killed it. 8-(((
This spring we'll take it down and I'll replace it with something new.
