During my last trip to Zion, I was on a hunt for this tree. I had seen it in a photo by Ryan Engstrom with the milky way in the sky taken during the wee hours of the morning. I found it just a couple 100 ft from the road and the next time I'm in Zion this is the first nights subject.

Zion National Park, Utah

At midnight the traffic serpentines up the roadway towards the Tunnel at Zion National Park.

 

Here's the second location of a 42 hour shooting blitz that William McIntosh and I embarked on over the weekend. The plan was to start out in Zion National Park for a shot that we both had on our bucket list and then continue through to Death Valley for some daytime scouting, then over to the Alabama Hills for the sunset and some more nightscape photography.

While in Death Valley I received a call from my climbing partner Tony Eggnozzi, informing me that he was currently in Alabama Hills with about 30 or so other climbers and wanted to know if I would like to join them. We met up with him and the climbing crew and joined them at the campground. It was nice to sleep inside of a Camping Trailer and get 2 hours of actual sleep before setting off to our final location. During the entire trip Bill and I traded off driving duties and grabbed just enough sleep to continue on as to help keep the driver company and awake which is always a good thing. All told I think I slept maybe 5 hours the entire trip but I'll tell you what, when I finally arrived home I hit the bed like a ton of bricks.

I have made several attempts at this shot, and I'm not even sure if attempt is an accurate description. The first attempt was two years ago. I was completely shut out by clouds and never even made the trip up the trail, the second trip it was the weather again, lightning and harsh winds had me concerned about being out on an open ledge, it is very exposed at the overlook so that kept me from another attempt. Thankfully, the weather was much better this time and I grabbed the shot I had envisioned many years ago. If you look at my post from last week called "Tunnel View" You will see a chain link fence at the top of the photo, that is where this shot was captured. Hope you like it!!! :)

Zion National Park in Utah. It's a nice park that's entered from the bottom of the canyon instead of the top like Grand Canyon. Beautiful colors with hiking and biking trails. It's a day trip from Las Vegas. #ZionNationalPark #NPS #nature #Natur #hiking #Wandern #randonnée #山 #ハイキング

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!

This Zion Garden was found in during my hike in the Virgin River in the Narrows portion of Zion National Park. There were dozens or more of these areas along the walls of the canyon that had these different color rocks laying rest there. I thought it was the coolest thing I had seen in quite awhile.

We hiked over 7 hours that day in the river and while I have many images to share from that wonderful day, I thought I would start with this one.

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.

Just starting to shower a bit , you can see the droplets . I just love this place !

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!! :)

I like this shot especially since it took over two hours of uphill hiking to get it. Zion National Park.
