This morning we arrived at the Court of the Patriarchs to shoot the sunrise, along with photographer Ian Plant. The clouds lit up as if they were on fire for a few short moments. I was late to the spot and missed most of the show in the sky. Unfortunately, Ian had a slight misadventure (read about it here) during the ‘epic’ light. However, Joe Rossbach captured a stunning image (see it here).
The trees in Zion were ablaze with color. I understand that the color appeared later than normal this year, which was good for us.
We ended the day at sunset on the bridge overlooking the iconic view of the Watchman. The clouds were not really cooperating but a few showed some color as they passed high overhead. I used a wide angle lens to try and capture a little sky color. Tomorrow… The Narrows.
