I was very careful stepping on some rocks to get to this pristine section of the desert. The soil there is alive, and takes many years to get to this state ... so not stepping on it is quite important. I really liked this pristine view of the earth there leading into the wall of the Reef there in Utah.
This view was via one of the back dirt roads there in the park.
Now I really really really enjoy my sleep ins...but its a morning like this that makes you thankful for getting out of bed.
Its a single exposure using a Cokin GND8 and Circ Polarizer. I know that the dark part above the cloud won't be to everyone's cup of tea, but I like how it shows the top parts of the cloud off.
Anyway..its my interpretation. Have a great week everyone
Another visit to this location with some ok conditions providding a hint of colour and some flow over the rock shelf.
A panoramic shot of Sunset Point at Capitol Reef National Park after sunset, with the Henry mountains in the background. This is looking East - against the sunset - and gives a very nice view of the evening colors.
That morning, we started from Jackson, MT, stopped by Bannack to visit the ghost town, and still made it to this spot by sunset. A great end to a great day.
This point near Bell Buoy Beach in northern Tasmania marks the beginning of a rocky reef. As the name suggests it extends out to sea and along the coast for two miles. It is one of the reasons the Low Head Lighthouse was built to warn shipping.
Basaltic pebbles makeup most of the sediment on the beach at Malarrif, which means "pebble reef" in Icelandic. For centuries the farm at Malarrif was one of the most isolated farms in Iceland. It was the westernmost farm on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula and the nearest settlement to it was the fishing village at Hellnar. The lighthouse here had an important role for Icelandic fishermen for decades as they fished in the rich fishing grounds by the shore. Icelanders fish these same grounds for centuries. The lighthouse was built in 1917 and rebuilt in 1947. The height of the lighthouse is 20 meters, and the light had a range of eighteen miles. The farm and lighthouse is now an important tourist center in Snæfellsjökull National Park.

Was lucky that this fellow flew in for a few minutes whilst at Long Reef. Not as sharp as one would like as it was just after sunrise.

A boat standing on the beach during the low tide, protected by a coral reef. Subauma, Bahia, Brazil.
with the Henry Mountains in the background (this time from the west - we've covered some ground since the last shot of them). Looking at stuff like this can really spoil a person for the rest of the world.
Im seeing black and white today..its not good. A Quick post before the weekend so I hope everyone has a blast!
Stay Safe!
At the end of the long drive to Capitol Reef, we were rewarded with a dramatic sky and the refreshing scent of light rain in Redrock country, a fine beginning for our Spring camping trip with our kids.
