Sunrise Point, Bryce Canyon National Park. We were there just after sunrise last Friday morning. It was COLD!! The wind was howling, it was hard to even stand against it, and at one point I had to hand my nearly 30lb backpack from the tripod to keep it steady in the wind. At a place and time that can be crowded with photographers, we saw only 4 other hardy souls, and they all thought the wiser of it, and ran for cover shortly after arriving, leaving us alone. We stayed for an hour, and when we returned to our car it had warmed up to a balmy 3 degrees F (-16 Celsius.)

Here's a BTS shot of my ever-patient Mimi:


Nanook (aka Mimi) at Sunrise Point (note the backpack on the tripod):
Lloyd, One of the places I wish to visit someday. But not in the weather you
mention.

The light is superb, the scenery is hugely magnificent and the photography
more so.

But guess what surpasses them all? Your lovely Mimi braving the cold to be
with you.

My warmest regards to the both of you. -16C...!!:thumbs:

You're absolutely right, Rayyan. No doubt about that! Come to see it! And there is much more in the area. We'll go there together. I've been here 16 times over the past 17 years, and always in winter. I'd love to see it in warm weather sometime. And it's only about 3.5 hours from home for me.

Hello there friend!!

A big thank you to you.

Nowadays it seems to flowers around here!
Rayan: Beautiful photo! The darkness and the intense, but, 'soft' hues of the flowers draw you in. Soothing and well composed. :thumbup:

Cheers, Matt
Rayyan: Big +1! Matt (BTW: glad, you're back after quite a while) intimately found the right words, as usual.

Lloyd: Really enjoy your pictures of Brice Canyon and particularly the one featuring "Nanook"- Mimi :), all the more it brings back wistful memories of my visits to that overwhelming place, when snow covered, but thank goodness, as well in midsummer.

Thank you Hermann. Much appreciated.

Steve, a very big thanks.

Prisoners would be led out from the door on your right hand corner. Up the stairs.

Noose would be put around their necks. They would then swing. A few
hundred years ago.


It is a museum park now.
