this photograph comes from a trip to Utah and Zion National Park over a dozen years ago. It is also another of my “lost and found” photographs — from a file that has languished in my raw file archives since that time. I think I may have left it behind after working up a different photograph of the same cliff.
This is a classic Utah red rock canyon scene, with bright green trees (just barely starting to take on autumn colors) at the base of red rock cliffs. I love how the red and green stand out against one another. As I’ve said before, this Sierra Nevada guy, after a visit to Utah, always feels like the gray rock of his “home range” looks a bit… bland.
