This image is probably shot a thousand times a day. The shot is taken right off of a lookout point. It’s such an amazing display of the canyon. Almost like a mini Grand Canyon. There are lots of trails around canyonlands for off road vehicle travel. Someday I hope to get back there with a capable vehicle and get some really good pictures.

I took a trip to Zion National Park in the spring one year, and it was amazing. Number one recommended National Park for photography and hiking.

There are going to be several pictures ascending the Angel’s Landing trail at Zion National Park. It was the coolest hike I have done, ever.

This was an attempt at capturing an image with a pretty high depth of field with many focal planes to worry about, and hopefully It would be interesting because of the different colors and textures on each rock face. I think it turned out pretty well.

Here are some prickly pear cactus, which weren’t all that common in Zion NP. These cute little plants were just facing into the sun, warming their little pear shaped appendages.

Zion is a really amazing park. It offers up many different ecosystems depending on what elevation you are at. We hiked into some gorgeous areas with this being one of them.

Some neat sandstone evidence of water erosion in one of the canyons. I bet it’s pretty incredible to see the water coming down one of these.

This is the view awaiting you a top the 2mi Angels Landing hike. Easily the most stunning hike I have ever done. It’s going to be pretty hard to beat. Please, during your lifetime, do this hike!

What in incredible hike. I could have stayed up there for days. Here’s a look going back down the trail. There are some very easy climbing points, but everything is guided by a hefty chain.

This is a view from about half way up the trail to Angels Landing. Zion NP offers some of the most amazing scenes. This is a bucket list hike. Do it!
