Arrived at the arch at 420am in order to get a prime spot in front of the arch. Sunrise was 3 hours later!!

Most times I see photos that include the sky just to show that it is really an arch; I chose not to because I didn't think that was not of much importance compared to the view and the glow on the rock.
Same photographer See all
