Zion National Park 2005: Welcome to another episode of "Joe's Hiking Photographs!" I had the extreme good fortune this year to enjoy two separate trips to Zion National Park -- my favorite place on Earth. This portfolio is a compilation of my best shots from the many wonderful hikes taken in June and October. Thrown in at the end are a few random shots from Escalante and Cedar Mesa. The golden light and colors were simply magical. Enjoy!
THE ZION NARROWS:
Hiking up the Zion Narrows in mid-October. Farmer John wetsuits really made the day. No matter
how many times we do this hike, the beauty never ceases to inspire.
The golden glow hits the Imlay boulder.
One of my favorite shots of the year -- magic rock looks up the Narrows.
Entering "Wall Street" -- where things start to get dark. This shot deserved a good B&W conversion.
A little stroll up my favorite Orderville Canyon. This waterfall marks the
turnaround point for upstream travel.
Another beautiful turn in the canyon.
Hikers try to warm up in one of the few spots of direct sunlight.
Yet another beautiful dark corner with graceful light and shadows.
