Grand Sunset
A Grand Sunset on the Grand Staircase Escalante. There are always surprises on a road trip. It had been a long day, spending most of it at Capitol Reef National Park, hiking some of the canyons, climbing rocks, and stopping at every scenic turnout to take pictures, I was looking forward to a pleasant and beautiful drive, and it was. But then, while in the middle of Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument, after making a turn in the road, appearing before me was a powerful and dynamic cloud formation, at sunset, over a large mesa, in the middle of a huge expanse of scenery. It was certainly one of those surprising moments. It was Nature speaking to me again. I was on a trip looking for the color and beauty of Nature, and there it was right in front of me.
