Temple of the Moon mountain in Capitol Reef National Park

Capitol Reef National Park, Utah

Bajo la Luna

This was a fun shot to get. The original plan was to take an astro shot of the Temple of the Moon with the Milky Way in the background (Capitol Reef is a dark sky sanctuary). Unfortunately it ended up being too cloudy for good star photography. Instead, I had a friend drive my truck past the base of the Temple, with the light from the brake lights illuminating the rock face in a long exposure.
