Desert Paradise, a photo from Utah, West

Photographer's Note

This was one of the most spectacular natural compositions I have ever come across in my travels. It is an extremely remote canyon in an extremely remote corner of southern Utah. It's a day and a half hike to get in to this spot and the trip was one of the most memorable of my life. Hope you enjoy it as well.

This is definitely place to remember. Very unusual color of rock softened with green of trea and silky water combined together show us one exceptional photo. Good works, Mike.

Hi Mike,

it´s fantastic, and I think it was well worth it...the long time exposure makes it even more smooth and subtle...beautiful...(only pity it´s so small)

Take care, Ivana

Absolutely fantastic shot Mike!

Your image are really inspirational and make me go out and shoot more landscapes! Lovely colours and tones of this Coyote Gulch Cascades in Escalante NM in Utah. Good compo, contrast between orange sendstone and green tree!
I enjoy it a lot and thanks for sharing!

Great photo. The use of the stream to lead into the photo works well.

Hi Mike,
The textures in this piece are incredible! Did you edit the photo at all?
I bet the day and a half hike was well worth it.

Hi Mike,
I think you deserve about a zillion points for this one for a few reasons: the image quality is absolutely superb, and the incredible effort you make to get to this magic location is something that few would do. Thanks for sharing this amazing image. Gerald

WOW...SPECTACULAR is an understatement, The only thing I don't like about this picture is the size!

Hello Michael
lovely color contrast and sharpness in this photo. The way you have placed the elements within the frame makes me look around the image again and again. Truly a piece of art.
