Had a wonderful trip to both Zion NP and Bryce NP last week. Still working through my pictures, but thought I would post my pic of The Watchman. The conditions weren't great (are they ever?), so you can see the haze in the background brought in by the record high temperatures for the area. Still thought it came out pretty good. Would love to know what everyone thinks.

Great work , those greens in the foreground are so vivid and contrast superbly with the red tones throughout the background. Very nice!!

of your particular glass, what did you shoot this with - very nice. Time of year?

Shot this with my 17-40. It was actually my first time out with it. Overall it did a great job on the trip although there were times I wished it was a little wider. As for time of year, this was shot on April 25th.

Excellent capture. KUDOS to you. I'll be there on May 10th for a couple weeks.


Have plenty of Canons, enough ammo, enough to blow 'em to "L". Now, I just have to learn to aim.

Beautiful. We were there in 2010 and 2 days wasn't long enough.


Life is hard...but I just take it one photograph at a time.

Great capture! I think the haze in the background doesn't affect the overall scene. Beautiful!
