the way I see the world
I continue to go through my 2021 photos: there are some I’ve never even seen. Here is something from our visit to Zion National Park that is slightly different than my usual work.
One more from our trip to Utah.
We visited Zion National Park a short while ago. It’s a place I find difficult for photography, while Dan manages to get fabulous images. Since I travel with him I do watch and learn. I’m hoping I’ll improve. I think the only way to know, though, is to go back. Hm. I’d be quite happy to do that!
I saw the Grand Canyon (North Rim) for the first time ever. But I have a fear of heights and I simply couldn’t go with Dan to see it from the edge there. Even from where I sat I was having issues. In addition, the wind was absolutely crazy. Turned out we drove all the way there, spent a few minutes looking, and headed back out because it was just too windy! Ah well … maybe I’ll get back there again sometime. It could happen.
This is just an iPhone shot: we didn’t even bother with our “real” cameras because of that darn wind!
We are now enjoying a rainy day here in my neighborhood. It’s quite welcome, having lived in drought conditions for so very long. I am always grateful for rain, as I am a real rain lover, but at this point I think the entire state is grateful!
Still, I dream of going to this lovely spot again …
