Delicate Arch, Arches National Park, near Moab, Utah.
This is a little different perspective of this frequently visited and photographed arch. This isn’t a better perspective, except that we were all alone – a long way from the large crowd gathered at the end of the trail head. A crowd that actually began to yell at each other as they “ruined” each others photos – it really tainted what should have been a wonderful evening.Read More
False Kiva, Canyonlands National Park, Utah.
This amazing location is kept fairly quite by the Park Service, as it is tucked away under a beautiful alcove on an un-marked trail. It isn’t really a Kiva (site for religious rituals), but it is a historic native American site.Read More
Balanced Rock, Arches National Park, Utah.
Having a few clouds in the sky caught me be surprised Saturday night, as it has been a fairly rare event while here in Moab. I gotta say, a colorful sky was a treat, and Balanced Rock seemed like an ideal subject for such a sky.

Henry Mountains, Utah.
Another aerial photo.
I have to give a giant shout out to our pilot Tim, he was the best. His family represents 4 or 5 generations in the Moab area, he had wonderful stories of all the areas we flew over, I could have listened to him all day.Read More
Waterpocket Fold, Capitol Reef National Park, Utah.
My biggest motivation for doing an aerial photography session was to photograph the Waterpocket Fold in Capitol Reef. This 100 mile long fold in the earth is fascinating; but from the ground, it is really hard to appreciate the magnitude of this feature, and even harder to capture it in a photograph.
I can’t adequately explain how it was formed. If you want to learn more, I recommend taking a gander at the Park Service site on the formation of the Waterpocket Fold.
Here are many more photos of Capitol Reef National Park, Utah.
The Needles, Canyonlands National Park, near Moab, Utah.
The open area in the middle of this scene is know as Chesler Park.
We spent 3.5 hours yesterday flying around Southeastern Utah. All I can say is wow! Everywhere I looked there were fascinating places just waiting to be explored – slot canyons, alcoves, buttes and so much more – just cool stuff everywhere.
The Needles District really stood out. I would love to spend some time exploring this fascinating region.

Mountain Biking Moab
We we were riding back to the parking lot after a great evening of riding and photographing on the famous Slick Rock Trial, when I noticed a wonderful sunset glow to the west. I wanted to find a nice ridge where I could have Janine sillouteed against the skyline. When I saw this rock, I knew I had the perfect place!Read More
If you have followed our blog for long, you will know we really enjoy mountain biking. Well, since we are in the mountain biking capital of the U.S., you know we had to do some riding and photography – especially on the famous Slick Rock Trail!
We were out at sunset last night and came across a large group of young guys. The bravest of the group were taking turns descending this very steep section of slick rock, and didn’t mind if I did some photography. This guy had already descended successfully once, and decided to try an even steeper section. Well, as you can see he was already in trouble at the top. Read More
