Capitol Reef National Park, Utah, March 2022, Part 1

In late March of 2022, I drove to my oldest son’s home north of Denver, Colorado and we drove together to Capitol Reef National Park in Utah.  We lodged in the small town of Torrey, just west of the park.

Since we arrived late in the day, we only got out for a brief visit to the park visitor center and a stop at a nearby overlook trail, where we shot a few handheld images.

Past Prime
Monochrome Tree

The sky was overcast, the light well suited for muted monochrome images.

Rock Trees
Abstract (Rock Texture)
Old and Gnarly
Truncated

This old tree stump looked different, depending upon the angle of view.

Dancing among the Rocks

The color image of this old tree stump with this angle of view reminded me of a dancer’s torso, but when I showed this one to my grandson, he saw two dogs back to back.  I have to admit that I had a similar initial interpretation, but only seeing one blunt snout dog with long ears trailing behind it.  I still prefer the dancer interpretation.

Life on the Edge

I have not had time to go through all of my photos from this trip and just barely got time to write this initial post, more will follow; but I may not be able to keep up with my preferred schedule of two posts per week.  (Every trip leads to much to do to catch up at home).

Be safe and well,
