Late Season Monsoons Most Welcomed

That is here in Southern Utah because of drought conditions. With Monsoons come lightning and lots of it, the best display I saw this year. Watch in Hi Def and Full Screen.

Star Trails At Zion

This was shot from my balcony for about 2 hours. I made about 150 time lapse exposures and stacked them in Photoshop.

Zion Milky Way

The New Moon actually means No Moon so the stars and the Milky Way were bright and spectacular last night.

The Milky Way appears over Eagle Crags just outside Zion National Park, Utah

Lightning Strikes Zion Country

A monsoon visited the area Thursday and of course, I was out chasing it. Music by MYLO. Watch in HiDef at Full Screen.

Is it Beep Beep or Meep Meep?

Google says real fans of the Roadrunner cartoon character say Meep Meep and so do I. This one is probably not the cartoon character but showed up on my patio anyways. He didn’t say Meep Meep !

Storms At Zion Country

Flyover video adjacent to Zion National Park during last week’s thunderstorms. Never flew the drone inside of Zion (Illegal)but used my zoom lens to get close from afar. Watch in HiDef at Full Screen. Music by Groove Armada.

The Unusual Is The Usual Here

Near Monument Valley and Valley Of The Gods, Utah are some other interesting geologic wonders that defy description.

Multiple colors appear in different geologic layers in Southern Utah near Mexican Hat.

Still Photos – Valley Of The Gods

You saw the video, here are some still images I captured including some with a storm passing through.

Storm clouds pass through Valley Of The Gods in Southern Utah.

Utah’s Valley Of The Gods

I didn’t feel the presence of any Gods but I definitely witnessed the work of Gods millions of years ago. Valley Of The Gods is Monument Valley’s handsome understudy but just as magnificent. The landscape is raw and unadulterated and the BLM has wisely and purposely left the road rough and uneven, making the drive through it hard earned. Music is the Pyramid Song by Radiohead. Watch in HiDef at Full Screen. Still Images to follow.

Wildflowers Appearing Daily

I’ve noticed wildflowers blooming in and around Zion National Park now and hopefully will find more in the near future.
