I’ve driven by the Sevier River in Southern Utah a lot and sort of figured it was very winding. These aerial shots confirm it.

Near my home town of Fairfield, I ran into some nice
signs of fall.








Our trip to Peru included a steamy, exhilarating push into the Amazonian Jungle. A two hour boat ride took us down the Tambopata River where there were no roads and few people.
We flew into Puerto Maldonado to begin the jungle excursion. This was the second jet plane needed to make it there since the first one experienced engine trouble and we turned back to Cuzco. I knew something was amiss when the pilot came on the intercom and asked us to ” remain calm!” It was a hard landing in Cuzco but we all remained calm….
Moto Taxis in Puerto Maldonado. No emergency landings needed.
Sheets were used to keep the giant insects from devouring us through the night.
The house Monkey, Pepe. Pepe was like your pet dog or cat and would jump into your lap while relaxing in a hammock

Our guide took us on a nighttime boat ride, spotting for Cayman.

This tarantula was definitely moving.
Thick vegetation, thankfully we had a guide.

The Virgin River has done to Zion Canyon what no Hollywood special effects movie director could ever do. Create a remarkable canyon that is and looks natural. Throw in a pinch of fall colors and you have a masterpiece. During early November, Zion NP hosted the Plein Air Art Invitational(Facebook Page Link) where a number of renown landscape painters plied their trade(In The Footsteps Of Thomas Moran) and produced memorable paintings capturing the essence of Zion during the autumn season. One such is Steve Hill and you case see his work at Windswept Studios. The images below are fall colors I shot along the Virgin River a few weeks ago.
