Mesa Arch in Utah is a very popular place for photographers. We arrived in the dark to claim a spot in the crowd. This is the last of the group still catching parts of the amazing morning light.

  We hiked 2 mile in the dark with a flashlight to get a spot at Dream lake in RMNP last Summer. LOL. What we won't do for a picture. This is beautiful, Karen. Gorgeous colors, lighting and composition.

  Many thanks to each of your for your kind words. We got up about 4:00 am. It was well worth it and I hope to be able to do it again someday. It's a place I will never forget and a sunrise unmatched by any other.

  Hopefully none of the photographers were rude, as I've heard about that experience. Congrats Karen!

  I'm also running out of ways to express how grateful I am for all of your kind words and support. So I will say once again THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

Ken, we had a very nice experience at the arch. Of course everyone wants that very best spot and it was difficult to move around, but everyone was kind and cooperative.
