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.

2011-Twelve | November

November was another great month! I know I’m running about a month behind with this post, but I just finished going through my photos from November.

At the beginning of November I was finally able to visit Coyote Buttes North and The Wave for the first time. I know it’s a popular location that everyone has a photo of, but it’s still an amazing experience to visit this site. We were also lucky to have nice light and skies for much of the day.

I visited the Moab Maiden again this month to try and get a better star trail photo with it, but instead I came back with this nice night shot without star trails.
