Rock Saddles

Alien Looking Hoodoos in the Southwest.

After shooting at a few popular destinations during my last trip to the Southwest, I went to search for this location and was very much delighted to have it all to myself when I found it!

A semi-remote and precarious location that features some of the most amazing, alien shaped pedestal rocks that I have seen thus far. These hoodoos, seemingly defying the law of gravity by balancing their enormous tops in acute angles give this place an otherworldly feel. Getting here requires a 4x4 or by hiking in soft sand trail. I went in by foot! Encountering some desert mice, rabbits, and weird looking lizards on the sandy trail provided some interesting "amusement" during the hike.

A panoramic view of Glacier Point in Yosemite with the milky way arches directly over it and the foreground bushes mirroring the milky way above. This image is composed of 18 frames from my Nikon D800 stitched manually and blended in Photoshop. The resulting image is about 122 megapixel in size!
