Travis these are all interesting interpretations from Arches. I like number one, but I think the best is your capture in Park Avenue. I'd never have an eye for something like that. Good catch!
As far as your dad, you are lucky you had this time here with him. I'll be traveling back to Illinois the end of this week to see my dad. A trip like yours would be out of the question for him.
Hi Craig, good to hear from the local expert, thank you for taking the time to comment, I do appreciate it.
The Park Avenue shot, that was a team effort, as were were walking through the wash we both kind of saw the rock, and then dad saw the cool patterns on the right side, so I re-adjusted to include those more.
...the story leading up to that one...we decided to walk up Park Ave at the end of the day, we were both exhausted, our day started at 4AM...10 minutes prior to this shot, the wind blew over my tripod...with the 5DII and 17-40L on it...it landed in a patch of sand IN the wash...a foot either side they were both goners...but it still works, needs a cleaning and a new battery door, but it still works.
We took this trip while we still could, each year our little trips get harder and harder for him, the first night in the park we hiked to Delicate Arch and I wasn't sure he was going to get to the top...I would have carried his pack too to make sure he got up there.
