I took this photo outside of Springdale, Utah (this town is at the entrance to the park and was where our hotel was located). I liked the color and the old wooden livestock corral.

This waterfall is on the Virgin River in Zion National Park.

I liked this silhouette of these two rocks.

This is another waterfall photo taken just before sunrise on Saturday morning.

This buck was crossing the river moments after the previous photo. Obviously he was not too camera shy.

We also saw some big horn sheep later in the morning.

This is the van we used during the weekend for transportation in the park.

I like the sunburst effect of this tree.

The mountain in back is called The Watchman. From this view you can get an idea about the water flow in the Virgin River.

This is an example of how we photographed in the narrows. We would find a dry place in the river to take off our backpacks, get our cameras and tripods out and then wade back into the river and start making exposures. One of our instructors, Scott, is in the purple hooded sweatshirt.

This photo was taken about one mile into the hike. This is a 2.5 second exposure and gives you an idea about the water flow and beautiful colors in the canyon.

Despite using a wide angle lens I was only able to get about 200 feet of the canyon wall in this photo. This area of the hike is the beginning of wall street. When you would look up it felt similar to being on 5'th Avenue in New York City.

The beautiful light on the canyon wall is from late morning sun. This light changes rapidly due to the depth of the canyon.

This was one of my favorite parts of the hike. However, maneuvering around, over, and between the rocks in the river reminded me of walking on submerged bowling balls.

Here is an example of ferns growing on the canyon walls.

More river vegetation and color.

I like the color in this photo. However, my favorite aspect is Kevin, one of our group photographers, standing in the river. He helps give some perspective about the canyon width and the height of the canyon walls.

This gives one the idea about the relative darkness in the canyon at mid-day. I really like the way the morning sun illuminated the canyon walls several hundred yards ahead of us.

This is floating rock. I had to elbow my way between eight to ten other photographers to get this shot.

Another perspective of floating rock.
