2011-Twelve | December

We have finally reached December, which is the last month for my 2011-Twelve Photo Project. It was another great month and I had a hard time choosing my favorite photo, but in the end I had to go with this one of Turret Arch.

As we drove over to the Windows Section of Arches National Park to catch the sunset, the sun peeked through a small opening in the clouds and lit up Turret Arch and many other sandstone formations near it. I pulled the Jeep over and took a few photos before the sun hid behind the clouds again. These formations were only lit up for a matter of minutes. Once the sun was hidden again, it never made another appearance so I was glad I stopped for this photo.
