Mesa Arch, Canyonlands National Park
On a sunrise shoot at Canyonlands National Park, the sun casts an orange glow on the rocks as I photograph this iconic scene. We arrived at the Island in the Sky location near Moab, Utah, as part of a photography workshop with Exposure36 Photography. But we weren’t the only group to make the early morning drive from Moab. The tripods and camera equipment arranged near the arch confirmed that this sunrise scene attracts quite a crowd. Even if you’re not a photographer, this is a boomer travel experience that you don’t want to miss. Alan’s version of the Mesa Arch Sunrise is much different than mine. Do you have a favorite?

Simply wonderful framed photo. The colours of the Utah National Parks are superb. I went to Zion and Bryce several years ago and couldn’t believe the reds and oranges, especially around sunrise and sunset.
Lovely capture of a spectacular scene, Donna. I’m looking forward to catching up on some of your other recent posts (love the Southwest!).
Awesome! Love this shot. Makes me want to book that Utah trip NOW.
