  • Epic Road Trip, Day 8, part 6

    Heading back to camp after the Fiery Furnace tour was about an hour's drive through Arches itself, then another 20 minutes or so to our campsite at DHP. Well, that's travel time. I pulled over a few times to get these shots.

    Like a sloped stack of pancakes or something!

    Away from Arches and cruising on highway 313 we had to pause to capture a rainbow.

    Then we got to the Point and caught the show happening in the sky.

    The darkening sky changed the landscape. Gone was the harsh bleached out colors from being in full sunlight, the rich greens and blues of the red desert were amazing to see!

    I finished the day with a couple of panorama shots.

  • What an awesome country we live in! I love the sunset shots -- and the others too!

  • Thanks! Day 9's sunset photos are even better, but you'll have to wait....
