Okay now that we had seen Bryce it was time to head towards the climbing again. But first was a stop in Arches National Park. The arches here are really cool and of course at the top of Climbing controversy with Dean Potter and the Delicate Arch.

This is the Landscape Arch back in 1995 a huge slab came off of this and a guy actually got a shot if it coming off! Crazy pic for sure.

    Really nice captures, the prospective of having a person in the image really shows how enormous these formations are. Nice colors and composition. Makes me want to travel there someday and have a looksee. Thanks for sharing.
