Golden hour at Canyonlands National Park. Photo by Steve Coyle Photography (www.stevecoylephotography.com)
Taking in the view from Dead Horse Point on the Colorade River in Utah. I got up early for this view when the only other people around were other photographers. The only sounds were those of the birds chirping or the wind blowing. The sun had not yet crested the rise and only the glow from it lighting the early morning sky lit the canyon at this point. It was truly a religious experience to see the land laid out bare before you from this vantage point. One of true wonders of this wonderful world we call home.

We arrived at Arches National Park just in time for sunset and a short hike to a couple of nearby arches. The first one we reached was Tunnel Arch just as the sun was setting behind the other nearby formations. I shot this single image handheld at f/16 to intentionally capture the sunburst as the sun set. Not an award winner with the blown highlights, but I still enjoy the image and thought it was fitting as the sun sets on another work week. TGIF!
