Mike, you are fortunate to live in a state that has so much variety in landscape. Moab is certainly one of those locations. Great job on your series!


Thanks, Dennis, I love the photo ops in Utah. I would note, however, that Montana is a wonderful state for photography,

You make me jealous when I see what's out your "backdoor," Mike. Keep it up.


Thanks, David, my street photography, however, is lacking.

Mike,
Really nice photos of a beautiful area to visit. I really like #2, I think the tree placement in you composition is perfect.

I am heading there in March to do some jeep trails. I hope to get some good photos of jeeps crawling over these red rocks.

Steve


Thanks, Steve. Are you going on a tour?

Great series, Mike. I’ve always wanted to visit the Moab area, but was never able to. Thanks for sharing those.


Thanks for coming along, Greg. The National Parks (understandably) get all the attention but the entire area is worth exploring.

A fine set, Mike! I like all of them, but find the first three images particularly interesting. If I can make one comment, it would be regarding the last photo, and this is just a personal preference, but I would have stepped closer in to obtain more of the background and move the trees, which frame the subject, more to the side. What is now the background is to me the most interesting part.


Thanks, John, and your are correct. I went through old attempts to catch birds and should have addressed the composition.

I remember just going through there a number of years ago and being impressed with the area. We didn’t stop, but thought it was on a par with the national parks.

Southern Utah landscapes are notable because of the wonderful red rock. I noticed in the recovered shots from Moab that there was a variation in the rock faces you see within a relatively small area.

The first three shots in this set are from UT 279, a well known local Moab area road to see petroglyphs. I picked out shots that showed the distinctive varnish on the rock faces. Look close and you can still see a few petroglyphs.

The last two shots are from a hiking trail out of downtown Moab. The rock faces are there, but no particular sign of the impressive varnish.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

A group of us in our neighborhood are going. It’s a father daughter/son outing. Someone in our group has made arrangements. I am taking two of my four daughters. One is 45 and the other is 50 years old. I think my kids are older than many of the dads. Should be fun.
