In-Depth Information
In addition to the trails you'll see in the photos, you'll undoubtedly notice sun flares (which I really thought I did a better
job of omitting), dust bunnies (--I just got the tools with which I'll clean my own sensors from now on), and the dreaded
jet contrails. If more aero engineers were photographers, perhaps the exhaust would spit out in shapes of cumulus clouds.
We passed by Fairyland and Sunrise Points and headed straight for Sunset Point. Man, or should I say God, I missed this
place. So many good memories with Barb. The people in national parks are always so happy, and walk around with a
little humbling glow that seems to bring everyone closer. Photos 5 thru 31 were taken in the little over an hour we were
at Sunset. It was a tough job trying to make sure Ray & Matt got to see everything on this trip, which, of course, is im-
possible, and that they had enough time to enjoy each stop. It was a tricky task, but after all these years you get a good
sense of when a fellow photog is finished. On the other hand, many of the best shots were taken when one photog was
just getting a few last shots while waiting for another to finish. Finished or not, we headed to Bryce Point for the next 10
photos in the gallery. After a short stroll along the rim and a promise to return, we left for Inspiration Point, where I only
took 3 shots. Both Matt & Ray were off in different directions, and I took the time to simply enjoy the warmth of millions
of years emanating from the area, drinking in with all my senses, glad to be the human experiencing it at this time.
