#1 is from a hundred feet to the right of the 'offical' Viewpoint area --i.e., the place the paved walkway leads to from the parking lot-- at Green River Overlook in the Island In The Sky district. The view in the pic is similar to, but wider than, the shot that had been used (throughout the '90's and up to about 2010) -on the park brochure visitors would be given when they arrived. I first saw/photographed the place in the middle '80's (before there was pavement), and since then -- the same as now-- have considered the place one of the most sublime places I know. Slightly off to the left of the official Viewpoint fence and stuff is a large hump of rock. Its there that Max von Sydow (in the role of Jesus) was positioned to give the 'sermon on the mount' in the 1965 movie 'The Greatest Story Ever Told.' "Blessed are the peacemakers....." with Turks Head, the Green River, Millard Canyon, the Orange Cliffs & etc. as a backdrop, all trying their best to look like the Jordan River and Palestine and thereabouts. Who'da guessed? Beyond the place I shot this shot, a quarter mile or so toward what's called 'Little Half Dome', we carried out the body of a guy who'd committed suicide, the details of which I won't go into here.
