Mesa Arch in Canyonlands NP.

A large group of us went there last Oct.
I think I came away with a couple of good ones.

Camera was a Canon XSi with a Tokina 12-24 lens.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks everyone.

If you do go to this spot, it's an early morning shot.
The first shot where you just see the red glow of the rocks was taken 10-15 minutes before sunrise.
The arch is only 40-50 feet long, and there was a line of people waiting when we got there 1/2 an hour before sunrise.

Bring your wide angle lens of choice with you.

^^^ Thanks for adding that one....very interesting to see 'the reverse side' of the shot, with all those keen photogs!
