The Story Behind the Shot

I started the hike in Utah's Arches National Park expecting a simple walk. I was wrong. Even on a cool November day, the slickrock hill is tough. It's extra hard when you're carrying a pack full of camera gear. But the reward pays you back with interest.

The sun began to set. The entire landscape caught fire. I wanted to capture the huge scale of this moment in this vertical photo. The rocks soaked up the last rays of light. They began to glow from within. This bathed the famous arch in warm, glowing light. It reminded me that beautiful moments must be earned. These wild places call us to explore them again and again.
