| Formations in Bryce Canyon, as seen from Sunset Point |
Bryce Canyon National Park
The next morning we backtracked north on U.S. 89 to the intersection with Utah State Route 12 and turned east to Bryce Canyon National Park. Nothing much can be said that hasn’t already been said countless times about the remarkable rock formations in the park; likewise countless photographs have been made that are more or less identical. Mine are by no means exceptional, but I enjoyed making them anyway.
The rock formations, by the way, are called hoodoos, like those in the Valley of the Goblins. They have been created by erosion over many years. Ice freezing and expanding in the cracks of the rocks is largely responsible for their distinctive shapes.
We were fortunate to arrive when we did, as the morning sun provided a three-quarters backlight that projected the shapes of the hoodoos in sharp relief.
As I said, these photos are by no means exceptional, but I enjoyed making them. (All from jpegs, by the way.)
