    I love that Pano, a very dynamic sky; hope you didn't get rained on. It looks like the place we ate lunch on our way out of the park.

    I'm not too wild about the IRs (but I rarely am with IR). There doesn't seem to be enough contrast, and I really like the red in the rocks. I think a bit more sun would help, though! :D

    Thanks guys.

    It rained a bit every day that we've been here, but I think that ends today.
    I know the IR's are the best, there was no sunshine when I took them, and
    IR needs sun.

    Gus, one of the parks is still closed because the snow is to deep. The locals
    have been saying that they're going to try to plow it out next week and
    open the park. The EL. is over 11,000 feet. Bryce has some spots that are
    over 9,000 feet, so I'm guessing there will still be some snow there.

    This is from the ride to Utah. I think this was in Wyoming.

    They are kind of wind breaks. They're snow fences. It helps to keep the
    snow from drifting across the highway.

    Met up with everyone else today. We went and shot the Bryce sunset.

    Here are a couple.
