Bryce Canyon is located in the southwestern part of Utah. Nothing much has changed since my last visit except for more people in the park. Inspiration Point is one of my favorite locations in the park. There are numerous vantage points from which you can obtain images. The second image is an excellent example of what I always tell people, "Look for the image within the image".
Thor's Hammer is location on the Navajo Loop Trail. The best angle isn't from the viewpoint on the ridge but rather down lower on the trail a few hundred feet.
The next image is also from the Navajo Loop Trail but from on top of the ridge. The one big cloud makes this image pop for me.
Sunset Point pretty much describes the image I captured here a few years back. The colors are amazing, and it was even better being there in person.
Natural Bridge was always a very hard shot for me until I purchased my 14-24mm lens and put it on a full frame body. Now I can get the Bridge and surrounding area. However, there are limited angles from which to capture the shot so most everything you see from this area will look pretty much the same,.
This next image is from "Wall Street". This is one of my favorite places in the park. Even though it's a moderate to difficult trail, mainly because of the elevation change in such a short distance, it still attracts many people. The trail is 1.6 miles in length and traverses through Wall Street and past the Twin Bridges before completing the loop. I see most people walk right by these lodgepole pines and don't think twice about looking up. Others take shots with their phones or point and shoot cameras and never get images as dramatic as this. On my last trip, there was a family from Australia taking photos next to me. The woman had a Nikon so I volunteered to let her borrow my wide angle lens and showed her how to capture the image. I hope she got one like this.
I finally made it to the Mossy Creek area where there is a cave and waterfall. There really isn't a cave here but instead what people in Tennessee call a "Rock House". The waterfall isn't very picturesque but it's still worth a visit.
