Delicate Arch

Having taken many trips to Moab over the years every sunset has been different but this one, this one took my breath away! Every photo I have taken over the years has always started from an idea of the photograph I want to capture before it actually happens, a moment in time I can picture (a dream). Although during most shoots nature has taken its own path to change my original idea to capture that moment a little differently. This photograph was different as it was everything I thought it could be before it happened. I setup this evening in hopes the sunset would come to formation as seen here. As the sun was setting and many other photographers where snapping away 50 yards to my right shooting the traditional Delicate Arch photograph we all come to love, I held my position. Minutes later the sun dropped lower on the horizon and the sky began to light up in front my view finder. This is one of the most amazing sunsets I seen in Moab and excited to share it with you!
