[...] Purchase a fine art photograph of “Zion’s Fire IV” here. Or view more photos of Zion National Park. Or view all photos of my Christmas-New Year’s trip through the national and state parks of Southern Utah (Arches, Bryce Canyon, Capitol Reef, Zion, Canyonlands, Dead Horse, Goblin Valley). And by the way, I had done a photo-a-day blog-log of the trip. Check it out from Day 1 here. [...]

The perfect snow shot with red rock outcrop is quite fascinating to me. However, the snow scenery at Snowy Moubtains in Australia is companied with gum trees, Kangaroos and grey rock outcrop.

Hi Tom! I shot this photo after the sun had already disappeared - it was pretty dark out, but there was still a little light left. Sunset here is around 5:10 pm; I shot this at 6:25 PM according to my camera metadata. All the rock around here is orange and glows at the end of the day. But the rock in Zion has been most amazing in terms of glow. Check it out! There, it was like a volcano! I hope I can make a hiking photography meetup soon too. I won't be back yet for tomorrow's meetup, and on January 23rd, I'm teaching a photography workshop at VisArts on Art of Architecture: Photographing the Washington National Cathedral. But I've RSVPed for the February 6th trip! By the way, this hiking photography meetup group is a great idea, so thank you for organizing!!!

Hi Irene:
Photo looks great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What time of day did you shoot the pic. I would think that the snow and the time of day popped the red rocks.

I hope you can make some of the Hiking Photography outing this month and in February.

I see you teach at VisArts, I do as well, but it’s under Penn Camera. Check in on the meet-ups site and post you pictures there as well. Great work.

With all that snow you might process some B/W, Sepia and Cyanos!

Thanks Chis! I didn’t do any coloring! The rocks just glow red – it’s amazing!
