Three Gossips, Arches National Park, Utah

Three Gossips, Arches National Park, near Moab, Utah.

I wasn’t in the right position, but as I hiked around Arches National Park Monday morning, I noticed the possibility of capturing the Three Gossips, and the nearly full moon, right at first light.   So I went back Tuesday with this image specifically in mind.  I love the warm light on red rock!

On Friday, as we were getting ready to head out the door, MSNBC contacted us for an image of Arches National Park.  The photo was aired along with a story on the last minute law changes being made by the outgoing Bush Administration – one of which would allow drilling on the outskirts of Arches National Park.  It happened quick – the photo was on the air just over an hour after they contacted us, so I decided to grab a quick photo of the TV.

This Saturday night, a couple of my photos of Spokane will accompany the ESPN’s coverage of a Gonzaga basketball game.

We are done converting, adjusting and key-wording photos from the last few months – that was pretty fast for us!  I’m not sure about this photo, but it is an image that struck a cord with Janine, so I’m posting it for her.  🙂

Take a look at more of our Canyonlands National Park photos.

I photographed sunset from this beautful viewpoint a couple different evenings on our trip.

If you look closely, you can see the White Rim Road.  The best overnight camping sites along this 4 wheel drive road are by permit only and fill months in advance.  I would love to camp down there someday, hopefully on our next visit.  We have friends from Seward who have mountain biked the trail and said it was amazing.

Here are more Canyonlands National Park photos.

We are slowing working our way through converting and adjusting images from our last trip.  Here is a photo of Lake Powell from our aerial day – we covered a lot of ground that day!

Slickrock Bike Trail, Moab, Utah.

Before we left Moab, we had to bike the world famous Slickrock Bike Trail.  All I can say is, wow!  It really is a lot of fun – riding on solid rock like that is a treat.  The views are amazing.  You can look across the Colorado River into Arch National Park.  Other viewpoints give you views of the town of Moab, the La Sal Mountains, and, well really, you can see 360 degrees in all directions.Read More
