The classic Zion National Park view of the Virgin River and "The Watchman" - Though it is a well worn vantage point and photographed location, I had one afternoon and sunset to make a call of what to shoot and this was kind of the easy winner, just too good to pass up. I will return some day with more time and options to explore some of the less photographed areas of the park. Enjoy.
This is probably the last shot from the Narrows that I have to upload, from my trip in June to Zion National Park, Utah. Every step on this hike is another opportunity for a great picture. The Wallstreet section of the hike, shown here, was the most scenic part of the hike: the most scenic park in Utah, in the most scenic hike in the park, and the most scenic part of the hike! Now that's pretty impressive! I'm trying to plan another trip out to Utah in the middle of March, when I have some time off. I'm for sure planning on Zion again, and also doing some backpacking in the Needles district of Canyonlands NP. It's always a dramatic change to go from the wet, humid deciduous forests of the southeast to the deserts of the southwest. Has anyone ever done Capitol Reef before? I've never done any photography there, only driven through.
On Day Six we hiked Zion National Park.
It was a hot day said to reach 99 degrees so my parents did not join us on the hike. They sat in the shade in Zion Lodge while we sweated our way to Lower Emerald Pool and back. This photo was taken on that trail.
This was a hike into an untouched portion of Zion NP, after about an hour no signs of human presence. However tracing our footsteps back we noticed some real big cat foot prints on top of our shoe prints, we were not alone after all!
Tunnel of light in the Zion Narrows.
Zion Narrows is one of the most popular hikes in Zion National Park. There are a couple of outdoor adventure outfits that in Springdale that rent gear for the hike, including water shoes, neoprene socks, dry pants and a helpful walking stick.
The hike is a lot of fun and offers some great photo opportunities. Definitely worth doing if you happen to be there.

After launching my new time lapse video "Into The Night".
Finally get into processing some of those time lapse into startrails photography. This one taken from Zion National Park on a moonlit night back in April, 2014.
The final sequence consists of over 600 frames. I took out 200+ frames with clear sky, cloned out all the airplane in the sequence then process them into startrails. Bring it back into Photoshop and did all the final adjustments. Hope you like it!
Thanks for viewing!!

This is a view from a pull-over we hit on the way up to the Canyon Overlook Trail. I had intentions of getting a sunset shot at the end of the trail BUT, it was direct sun and I saw it would be a great place to get morning images. Maybe next time. The trail was awesome. Not very long but close to the edge at times. Sweet. The overlook is in the part of the park that you can drive to.
Zion National Park, UT
Panoramic view from the end of the "Canyon Overlook Trail" near the entrance of Zion National Park... you can't walk any further as the trail ends at the edge of a steep cliff....
Known for its towering sandstone monoliths, swooping rock arches and painted canyon walls, Zion National Parkâs natural wonders place it among the great sightseeing destinations in the western United States.
The Virgin River has carved a spectacular gorge in the upper reaches of Zion Canyon: 16 miles long, up to 2,000-feet deep, and at times only 20 to 30-feet wide. The Narrows, with its soaring walls, sandstone grottos, natural springs, and hanging gardens can be an unforgettable wilderness experience. However, it is not a hike to be underestimated.
Hiking The Narrows means hiking in the Virgin River. At least 60 percent of the hike is spent wading, walking, and sometimes swimming in the river. There is no maintained trail because the route is the river. The current is swift, the water is cold, and the rocks underfoot are slippery.
Flash flooding and hypothermia are constant dangers.
Thank you for your comments,

Zion National Park
I don' know the name of the peak in the foreground, but the name of the peaks on the left in the background is Twin Brothers and the peak on the right is The East Temple.
The East Temple towers 7,110 feet and rises 2,000 feet above the road.

Sorry for the massive upload, but I'm posting all these photos that I never posted back in the day, so that I can complete my Roadtrip to Zion album. :)
On our last day there, we were blessed by a rainbow over the desert.
