Paria Plateau

Recommended Posts

This past weekend, with possibly the last of unusual June storms in Arizona, I spent a few days on the Paria Plateau outside of Page. Most of the lens time was behind the new Nikon 14-24mm purchased from Mark at CameraLand.

The first morning sunrise brought a rainbow over iconic Horseshoe Bend.

After driving to Kanab, Utah and getting a permit for Coyote Buttes, I focused on the yellow mule ear flowers that bloom this time of year. There were plenty of white primrose and magenta pink prickly pear blooms also.

The final time was spent at a favorite location of convoluted sandstone atop the plateau. This scene with the towering clouds begged for B&W.
