The progress of rivers to the ocean is not so rapid as that of man to error…

One of the coolest things you can do at Dead Horse Point state park in Eastern Utah is to check out the canyon rim to find Trees with interesting shapes. It’s especially thrilling to do so while the sun is rising and you are short on time and you have a heavy camera and tripod to lug around and jump around near cliff edges. Great fun when you consider the fact that the canyon rim is at an elevation of 5,900 feet.

Anyways, after scaring myself half to death, I came across this beautiful tree which had a shape that perfectly complemented the shape of the canyon. Thankfully I also had great luck with the light but the clouds didn’t cooperate as much. Hopefully, someday I get to come here again when the sky is spectacular.
