Balanced Rock with Golden Light
When we arrive in the park each afternoon the first order of business is to try and find a spot with some great light on one of the formations or arches. Tuesday evening we got this fantastic golden light on Balanced Rock just before the sun dropped below the horizon. It’s Wednesday afternoon and soon we’ll be setting up for our 4th and final night photographing star trails here at Arches NP. We have been blessed with spectacular weather to do the star trails (exposures of 25 to 40 minutes). Last night and this morning were the coldest temps and we stayed out until around 11:30 pm, photographing three different formations.
It is incredible to find a place to lie down and look straight up into the night sky away from most city lights. Each night we have seen several shooting stars.
Hope you enjoy a few more images from one of our beautiful National Parks. We are so blessed to have so many areas across the fruited plains preserved for us to enjoy.
