Description

This stitched panoramic landscape photograph shows a large reddish-orange sandstone arch with a smaller secondary opening on the Partition Arch Trail in Arches National Park, Utah. Distant mesas and layered cliffs appear through the central opening, while shrubs, small evergreen trees and rocky terrain fill the foreground. Captured in autumn under a mostly clear blue sky.

Story

Captured on 10 October 2012, the image combines a warm red-orange sandstone formation with a smaller secondary opening, rocky sandy ground and sparse green vegetation. Strong directional sunlight brings out horizontal bands, weathering and erosion in the rock, while shadowed recesses add depth. The distant landscape is visible through the main arch beneath a mostly clear blue sky.
