Clouds & South

Photography Now & Then #120

A windy day today, highs in the low 80s, clouds race across the sky, precursors to a change in weather, perhaps. Rain is in the forecast for the next two days.

South Window Arch in Arches National Park, near Moab, Utah, is a “companion arch to the North Window and together, they are sometimes known as The Spectacles due to their resemblance to a pair of glasses with a bulbous nose between them. It is 115 feet wide and 56 feet high arch and is well formed, looking like an eye socket from a distance. Getting under this arch requires a lot more scrambling than its nearby neighbor, which is a plus for photography as there will be few tourists in your shot.” Careful Adventures
