This post continues a trip through the American Southwest with the stop in Bryce Canyon National Park. Until I had seen it for myself, this was not high on my list of places to see. With this in mind, that was the reason we did not budget enough time to explore the area.

Following the Rim Trail, you will come to this panorama at Inspiration Point. At this point, you will be presented with a grand view of the section of the canyon named Bryce Amphitheater. Stretching out is a layered view of hoodoos – irregularly eroded rock formations. Obviously this view really blew me away! Particularly the contrast in other canyons I have visited – Bryce had a different color, and jagged formation as far as you could see. When we were at the top, we could see approaching clouds. So, creating HDR images would bring out a little more interest from the sky. I will definitely be back to visit at either sunrise or sunset – this could have some magical color in that kind of light!
