Wild Utah

Marc Muench · May-23-2007, 01:20 PM

Wild Utah was as wild as ever from sunup to sundown. We "chased da light" and when it ran out we made our own!

Colorado National Monument

Goblin Valley

Our local guide, Gary George from Hondoo Rivers and Trails, shared his incredible knowledge of the geography and history of the land in his own flavorfull way

Here are some highlights from the first day. More to come and more to come from eveyone who partook in the shooting frenzy

I have not even had a chance to touch the "real" photos yet because I found once I got home that I have been shooting too much and have no more space on the HD at home.

Time to go shopping.

That said, I did manage to upload all the point-and-shoot photos, AKA the fun stuff. They are all here.

Just rolled in. Wow! What a trip it was. I'll get to processing in a while--I've
got a serious case of the shakes from the Red Bull drive

What a great trip!!!! Just starting to process a few of the 1st day's pic's. I think that the Goblins really do come out at night !!!

Fred! Schmoo! Great to have met you both.

Here's another...

Nightingale and I are still in Utah, and will not begin to process images until next week.

What a great experience, great folks, great scenery, and great pros!! Marc and Andy are the best photo guides ever!!

Here are two shots from our time with the crew in Utah...

Ian and Fred, glad to hear you both made it back OK! I look forward to seeing you (and everyone else I met) again at future workshops and shootouts.

Jim - I love that photo of the flowers. That is some sweet light if I ever learned to identify it.

Marc and Andy - I learned so much, my notetaking skills went into overdrive! I hope to be able to retain it all. My cheeks also hurt from laughing so much.

Here is my take on the panoramas at Cathedral Valley. One of the things I enjoyed the most is getting to see and play with all the schmancy equipment that I otherwise wouldn't have known about. A particular thank you to David for helping me with this one:

The semi-official ride of Wild Utah in IR.

Ok, so it was the ride we all took and maybe not the official kind but the
'burb got us all through Wild Utah!
