A photo story

Zion Canyon

I took this along the Virgin River in Zion Canyon, in June 2014. The water was shallow and clear, with a rocky bed, and the red cliffs rose on both sides behind the green trees. I was standing on a sandy bank, with a few pieces of driftwood in the foreground.

Zion Canyon is the main valley in Zion National Park, and the Virgin River is what cut it. This was a late afternoon look up the canyon, with a pale sky above the walls.
