On our first morning in Arches, we decided to shoot the sunrise at Organ. We found that the lighting was best just before the sun broke the horizon.
Turret Arch at sunrise.
Dawn at the Windows section of the park. The South Window is shown in this shot.
The North and South Windows viewed through Turret Arch.
Park Avenue
The La Sal mountains seen from the overlook across from Park Avenue. Not much snow this year.
Delicate Arch. We decided against walking to the arch and shot it from the viewing area below.
Skyline Arch
The bolders in the foreground fell from the arch in 1940, doubling the size of the arch.
Double Arch (on the left)
Double Arch. Notice the white spec on the floor of the arch about 1/3 up the picture....
Those "specs" were in fact two people.

Balanced Rock
Landscape Arch
These rock formations fascinated me. They look like books or platters standing up on end.
One afternoon we took the 62 mile La Sal mountain loop. Along the way we came up these formations called The Priest and the Nuns.
