I spent last weekend in Zion NP, another one of my favorite places among many. This weekend... into the Wasatch Mts.

Very nice Jeff. I was in Zion a few days later and had no clouds. I was on the North Rim for these days and the clouds put on a good show. Sounded like you should get some good (er bad?) weather this weekend.

Good stuff, Jeff! I particularly like the 2nd photo. I think a few of those could handle a little more web sharpening.

Nice collection of images, Jeff. I like classic shot of the Watchman. I agree with Jack that #2 is a standout photograph; I also agree that most would benefit from a little sharpening.

Thanks for the comments and for looking. I have never really sharpened for web viewing, but I do for printing, so I will give it a try for the future. #2 is my favorite also.

adios

Hey Jeff, I'm out in Park City, UT at the moment. There's a great slope of color in Big Cottonwood Canyon about 5 miles up from the dam at the canyon mouth. It's easier to see it when driving west towards Salt Lake and you will need about a 300mm lens to zero in on the maple trees. The spot is on the north side of the road. Possible snow above 7500 feet on Sunday night for the Wahsatch front. I'm in a silver 2003 4-runner with blue/white CO plates in case we cross paths

Very nice, thinking of heading there early Nov for my first trip, trying to time the colors!
