Wonderful!
I love your Angel's Landing shots. I don't like that type of exposure so I will never make it to the end of that trail - but I love seeing the shots from the steep portion.

Great shots!! Zion was one of my favorite family trips. Did you stay in the Cliffrose hotel in Springdale? I think I recognize that view of the Watchman.

Mitchell,
We stayed at the La Quinta Inn. Springdale is so small, I guess every hotel would have the same view!
Thanks for looking and commenting all.

Very nice....I'm afraid of heights--I don't think I could watch my kids hiking there! Great photos.

Great photos, your 1st attempt at the stars was nice, I really liked the silhouetted rock, it added a nice touch
