The last time we had been to Bryce in Utah coming from Arizona we forgot to change the time to the according time zone. We planned to see sunrise but when the alarm bell rang it was already daylight. This time we were a bit more clever and remembered when coming from Arizona to Utah, that we had to change the time to be awake and on stage for sunrise. We did. But even this time sunset in Bryce was in danger. Not only the weather was very hazy in the mornings but also my body seemed to resist seeing a beautiful sunrise in Bryce. Problem was we were at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon before, and there I was everything but clever. Running around in the morning at 0° Celsius in short khakis, running around the whole day and forgetting to drink at an altitude of 9.000 ft. wasn’t that brilliant. So my body collapsed when arriving in Bryce and I was uselessly bedridden. Luckily this only lasted one and a half days and we made it to a beautiful sunrise with some nice clouds. Enjoy as we did.

Just a quick one…

Two weeks ago we’ve been to Stockholm. Truely a beautiful place. What I do love the most about the city are the earthy colours used for the houses. Also the mixture of old and modern architecture is interesting. When it comes to the pictures my idea was to catch the colors but when working on the pictures the black and white ones became the ones I like more as they have in my opinion more character. Hope you like them.

You could see some more here.

Again Stockholm. Venice of the north. We had some very sunny days in Stockholm, even if the picture shown here shows clouds… this city is simply beautiful. More to come. Stay tuned.

We had a great morning with Clint in the Valley. Enjoying the sunrise at totem pole and visiting some folk of the Navajo Nation. Thanks.

We had two beautiful days in Arches and it is worth to stay there even longer. An amazing spot where you truly feel and see the time it takes to create this landscape. It wouldn’t be that surprising if a Dinosaur came around the corner.

Let’s start with Delicate Arch. Amazing spot and a nice walk up to the arch. Very likely one of the most famous arches in the park.

Windows section with Turret Arch. We’ve been here at sunset and it was truly amazing. Even if there were quite a few people you do feel peace and could enjoy watching the rocks turning red while the sun goes down.

Some geologists estimate that roughly 60 million years ago, a meteorite with a diameter of approximately one-third of a mile hit at what is now the Upheaval Dome.

The whole panorama is quite small here… as it is too huge for our small screens. The whole picture has 139 Mpix. Click to enlarge and to see a little bit more details.

…to get an impression of the size. The crop below shows the two buttes in 100% view, which you might see at the very left of the picture.
