Sunrise at Mesa Arch in Utah, USA. Early sunrise... lots of photographers were sitting there in the dark waiting for the sun to rise.
Mesa Arch est une célèbre arche située dans le Parc National de Canyonlands, en Utah.
Cette arche est la plus connue du parc. Posée au bord d'un canyon, elle offre un point de vue unique sur un dénivelé de 600 mètres dominant un extraordinaire paysage de canyons.
D'après diapositive.
Mesa Arch in Canyonlands National Park at sunrise. The arch is smaller than I envisioned it. It's span is only 90feet or so and the opening looks much smaller. the hike is a short 3/4 mile loop with minimal elevation change. Morning sunrise seems to be the best time as the sun lights up the opening of the arch with a fire like glow.
Took the ISO to 8000 here and 20 seconds for this capture in the dark at Mesa Arch. Also had a shooting star or iridium flare there in the capture too. Zoomed in the colors of the small flare span the rainbow. I placed a box around the flare in the image. At 14mm lens the apparent motion for the 20 seconds exposure is pretty limited there in the stars.
Mesa Arch. One of the iconic, bucket list images for a landscape photographer. I was fortunate to be there yesterday morning for an amazing sunrise. Wasn't even sure I was going to be able to get anything. It was unexpectedly cloudy, but a thin crack of 'clear' was right at the horizon. Lots of photographers already there (but not as many as on the weekends, I hear!), so I took up a place on the left where there was space and where I thought I could get a shot. The sun pops up in the only clear spot in the sky (I would call it about 99% cloudy!) for a short, but spectacular view. The sun didn't even last long enough to try another position for a shot. But, you know, I don't think I can complain about this one. ;-)

This was taken in 2019 on the Moki Dugway in southeastern Utah, near Mexican Hat. To the left is Cedar Mesa, and below is the Valley of the Gods. Both are in (or out) of the Bears Ears National Monument. The area is was officially in Bear's Ears until President Trump took office, and sadly thought mining interests were a bit more important. It is an exceptionally beautiful place for the time being.
This is a classic icon of the southwest that photographers frequently shoot shoulder to shoulder and there's absolutely no mystery why. The view through the arch is spectacular and stretches into the canyon lands. This particular morning we were there all night to get ourselves first pick of where to set up our tripods, and to shoot some astro photography. The sunrise didn't disappoint us.
I wasn't here for the sunrise, which is apparently spectacular, but just seeing this at any time of day is cool. As with any cool place, it's hard to get a shot without a lot of people posing in front of the arch.
With a trio of EMD GP38s for power, Utah Railway's RUT611 local pulls through Mesa (Thanksgiving Point in Lehi, Utah) the evening of June 21, 2009. Construction is underway for UTA's FrontRunner commuter rail extension between Salt Lake City and Provo.
The Espanola valley that stretches behind that mesa is at about 6000 ft elevation. The overlook on Hwy 502 close to Los Alamos is about at 8000ft, giving a spectacular view. No hiking required, this is pure roadside photography.

Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado. Well known for its cliff dwellings, but so much natural beauty of the area as well.

Approximately 580,000 people visit Mesa Verde each year. Would you like to explore this spectacular habitation all by yourself? Try going to the site in January, which we did in November, 2006.

FROM THE INTERNET:
Colorado's Mesa Verde, Spanish for green table, offers a spectacular look into the lives of the Ancestral Pueblo people who made it their home for over 700 years, from AD 600 to 1300.
Today the park protects nearly 5,000 known archeological sites, including 600 cliff dwellings. These sites are some of the most notable and best preserved in the United States.
