thank you Julie, I appreciate that you took the time to view and comment again. Bob

Bob, I keep coming back to this picture. I think this is one the nicest landscape photos I have seen. Such great colours and lighting. Should be framed and hung on the wall for sure. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful shot Bob. You just don't get skies like that or colors like that around here. Thanks for making me jealous.

thank you so much for the kind words, sometimes it seems everything comes together for a photo and as you point out the lighting and color are the key here with some clouds mixed in. Not much P/P needed here, so I was quite proud of the shot. TFL, Bob

thanks Susan, if I remember correctly you're coming out West this summer so you can enjoy the sky, sandstone and stars again.

Very true.

I did the 4-mile up, 4-mile down Observation Point trail when I was in Zion. About 5 hours up, 1 hour down.

We were at the campground near the Visitor Center. Kyle, that is a lot of work going on that hike. I read the info from the park and got tired just thinking about it. Here is a link to the hike for others to view. Thanks for taking a look Kyle, glad you are still around to talk about it.

I'll bet they did Kyle, that is a strenuous hike, especially if it is hot there. Thanks for taking the hike for us, I do remember your thread. Bob
