Parco Nazionale dello Zion. Istituito nel 1919 per salvaguardare quest'area costituita da un lungo canyon (24 km di lunghezza per 800 mt di profondità) scavato nei millenni dal Virgin River, che scorre nel suo fondo, e dai suoi tanti affluenti.

Zion National Park.
Massive HDR multi-row panorama shot at 70mm.
This was a ten mile hike through ankle-deep mud. We got our rental SUV stuck in the mud two miles from the trailhead; I did manage to get it unstuck but we had to walk the rest of the way. I lost a pair of hiking boots because they were too caked with thick mud to get back into my already-overpacked suitcase... but I'd do it all again for this view!!!
When we go back in 2022, we are going to hike out and spend about 4-6 hours here before we hike back.
We are planning to bring blankets, cards, and food so that we can just sit and enjoy what I consider to be the nicest spot on Earth that I have ever yet been.
Oh and I almost forgot. Max Zoom!
Zion National Park: This is looking north and the sun is rising to my right – the sun is nicely lighting up the mountainside while the sky still retains an early morning glow.
This is near the Pa'rus Trail – I walked east from the trail to avoid the trail being in the photo and to capture the valley floor
I went to Zion National Park in April. All of the apps said I would have clear skies. Well as you can see I did not get quite clear skies. I still think it is a beautiful image.
The yellow light of the clouds and the light on the Watchman come from Springdale. Some times light pollution can add to an image. Even with this image turning out I had to go back during the Nightscape Conference and try again.
Success! Clear beautiful skies and I was able to get the image I wanted.
No not that Tunnel view!!!
This is a look across at the Canyon Overlook in Zion National Park.
I was traveling through Zion to get to the back of the park which is only accomplished by a pass through the tunnel. As I sat in line waiting for my group to be signaled through, I was thinking about that big window inside.
Great it's our turn, As I moved ahead the ranger stepped forward and stopped the car right behind me. Maooooahhaha!!! The wheels in my mind started turning and a lightbulb went off. That means I would be the last car in the group through the tunnel, I could stop and really quickly run over and grab a shot through the big window then run back to the car and catch up to the group before they reached the rangers shack at the other end. I wrestled with it for a moment, I knew that I should'nt and that it's not safe, and you know that guy that sits on your shoulder reminding you about your moral fortitude, well, I didn't hear a peep out if him. As a matter of fact he reminded me to grab a vertical shot before jumping back in the car, Hehe. The "Photo Ninja" strikes again...Whaaaaaaaaaa!!!! ;)
To get an idea of the scale here, there is a fence in the crook along the skyline above and there is a woman in a pink jacket standing next to a man just to the left of that. :)

Utah is all about colors so I had to get the mono out of my system. Colors going forward for a few. :-)
We made a quick day trip to Zion National Park. I am so glad we did because the sunset was glorious!
Happy Saturated Saturday!

I like this shot especially since it took over two hours of uphill hiking to get it. Zion National Park.
Took this one with my buddy William McIntosh at Zion National Park. We scrambled up to William's sacred spot and eagerly awaited the sunset. Things were looking good but in the last 20 mins the clouds shifted to the east and started to light up the sky in the wrong direction. I quickly bailed from my over the valley composition and started shooting anything I could find facing the direction of the colorful clouds. You should have seen us, Bill and I sat there chanting, willing and hoping that the clouds would shift but mother nature was not hearing us.. :) So, not being my ideal shot for the evenings sunset, I think it still turned out to be a decent photo. I'm glad that we were alone in this spot or someone might have thought we were nuts or at least Bill was nuts out on the ledge literally a 5x5ft area with at least a 30ft drop in any direction, not even enough room for two tripods. Maybe they would be right? LOL. :)
I know my Flickr Friends are probably getting tired of my daily posts, I realize that's a lot of posting, but I have over 200 photos from 13 trips taken this year alone. And I need to get this stuff up here. I thank those of you that continue to encourage and support my photography even at this rate of posts. Maybe I should start a project like David Kingham. A photo a day for 365 days, When I saw him undertake his project I thought it was crazy to post everyday. Now I know why he's posting so many. :)
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my photos, and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!! Have a great Wednesday ahead everybody!! :)

We hiked out to Cable Mountain and looked down into the Zion Canyon. The Virgin River and the road curves around Angels Landing. There is a tiny tour bus in the lower middle of the frame.
The Virgin River wanders through Zion Valley heading for its final destination, the Colorado River.
In the distance, the prominent mountain known as the Watchman looms over the landscape like it has for thousands and thousands of years.

We drove to Zion National Park for the day. The park was so crowded with people it seemed that everyone else had the same idea. It probably seemed even more crowded to us because we have spent so much time in remote places recently. We decided to leave but on the way out happened to snag a parking spot along the road. Then we dropped down into the wash which runs below the road. We hiked a few miles along the wash and ran into very few people, most of them stayed up near the road. We found several lovely slot canyons.
