Arches Nat'l Park & Canyonlands, March 2013

Arches National Park has some unique and monstrous rock formations. See the people in photos 3,7, 41, 53, 77 and 90 to get a sense of the scale. Also included are a few photos from nearby Canyonlands National Park. The night photos using "light painting" and longer time exposures have the settings in the descriptions. I visited only a few of the 2000 arches in Arches N.P., focusing on the ones that photographed the best in the existing conditions. Special thanks to Scott Meyer and Dave Billingsley for taking time to show me how to maximize my trip to these two special parks through info, maps, equipment loans and other tips. Once again I recommend using slideshow to see these properly. Thanks for viewing!

    You can see the lovely X-mas tree from the previous photo was somewhat less than ideal! The perfectly level ground surrounding Navaho Arch seems bizarre considering the wildly uneven terrain just yards away. This is on a high plateau 400 feet above the nearby valley, between two tall ridges.
    Navaho Arch. I was here early in the morning and had it to myself. That was due as much to the moderate difficulty of the hike as to the hour.
