Delicate Arch

The hike out to Delicate arch is pretty easy, there is a little bit of an incline but not too bad. It is a very popular sunset spot and a lot of people head out there. While it was hard trying not to get people in the shot, I had to move around and try a capture the arch from different angles. Here I got a cool sun burst shinning from under the arch, which I thought made for a cool looking black and white photo.

The North Window

Friday night I camped out at the Devils Garden campground in Arches. What an awesome place to camp! The milky way ran across the sky from end to end, and the sand on the ground made a soft bed. I got up at 5am tore down the tent and headed off for the Windows. Hiking through the dark, I scrambled over some boulders and and up a ledge that looked through the North Window to Turret Arch and waited for the sun to rise. What a sunrise it was! Once the sun broke through the light just glowed off the North Window. What a morning it was!

I arrived at Arches late tonight, just after sunset. With what light was left I captured these photos. I can't wait to see what I find tomorrow, Arches is a beautiful place.
