Photography Now & Then #142
While we are traveling, posts will likely be less frequent, delayed, or backdated, depending on what we are doing and the availability of internet access. Today, our GPS led us astray and instead of getting pictures of CCC built buildings and structures, we have to settle for a sunset picture from a parking lot.

The Hogback
Then: The Hogback, on Utah Highway 12 in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Utah, October 9, 2015 (Pentax K-3 II)
Between Calf Creek Recreation Area and Boulder Town is an internationally famous stretch of byway known as “The Hogback.” As the asphalt clings to this thin razorback ridge of slickrock, the terrain spills steeply off to each side toward winding creeks and canyons below, where cottonwoods provide ribbons of green, gold, or gray depending on the season. Driving here is slow and cautious, but the vistas are incredible. scenicbyway12.com/the-byway/byway-waysides/the-hogback/

Photography Now & Then Notes:
Series Photos
- The Now photo is one that is almost always taken the day of the blog post. In some instances, posts may be backdated if internet access is not available on the day of the photo or other reasons prevent posting Photography Now and Then.
- The Then photo is usually a randomly selected older photograph from a batch of photos specifically “curated” for Photography Now and Then.
- Each photo in this series is an “original work” – a copyright term – of Michael Goad.
- Reference links were accessed on the date the blog post was published, unless otherwise stated.
- The title convention for Photography Now & Then blog posts evolved early on from one word related to each photo separated by “&” to usually being the first word in the caption description for each photo.
