Quick Trip to UT/AZ: Hike to The Subway

“The Subway” in Zion National Park, Utah. The sun was mostly behind clouds, so I didn’t have the reflected red light from the opposing sandstone cliffs coming in the other end this time.

After a few test shots, I set my aperture down to f/22 and my ISO to “L” (50) so I could use a long exposure of 30 seconds to capture the trails of the leaves moving around in the pool. Before I print this, I should still go back and see if i can increase contrast on those leaves so they show up better.
