The Narrows, Zion National Park, Utah.
I liked this gap with fall colors – I shot a lot of variations of this scene.
Here is more about Zion on this photo blog, in addition, here is our collection of Zion National Park photos.

The Narrows is a famous Zion hike, probably one of the great hikes in the entire west, and for good reason! Let me describe it and you will understand why. Basically you are in a narrow canyon with the walls rising straight up 1,500 feet around you. And if that wasn’t cool enough, the canyon itself has a beautiful, clear water river (Virgin River) running down the middle of it. In many places the river flows literally from wall to wall so you have (get) to walk right down the middle of it!
This photo is of one of the wider places – thus the trees. Read More
Crack with Water, Zion National Park
I mentioned yesterday that there were some really cool things to photograph near the Subway; this was one of them. This is a crack in the red rock creek bed, and a portion of the Left Fork of North Creek flows through it at a rapid rate of speed. It is an interesting sight!

The Subway portion of the Left Fork of North Creek, Zion National Park, Utah.
We are visiting some wonderful areas during this two month trip, but the one place I have been looking forward to over all others was the Subway in Zion. What a fascinating place!
It is interesting, I didn’t notice the leaves in the pool moving, but I guess the 30 second exposure was enough time to capture even minor movement.Read More
