A few years back, my family and I spent a couple months living in Sedona, Arizona working, painting and hiking. All that time gave us the opportunity to really explore the region and its many natural treasures. Our trips up into Southern Utah were some of my favorites. The stretch from Zion to Escalante to Monument Valley is all quite magical. Despite all we saw and did, I know there’s so much we missed. Can’t wait to get back for more.

Monument Valley in Arizona 🇺🇸
7 to 10 day Arizona road trip itinerary. On this Arizona itinerary visit Sedona, Grand Canyon, Saguaro, Petrified Forest, Antelope Canyon.
Monument Valley, located near the Arizona-Utah state line within the Navajo Nation, contains some of the most iconic landscapes in the United States. Instantly recognizable, the towering buttes have become a visual shorthand for “American Southwest,” appearing in thousands of films, television shows, commercials and music videos. From John Ford’s 1939 Stagecoach with John Wayne to 1990’s Back to the Future III, the million-year-old sandstone formations are among the most-photographed symbols of the West. In 1994’s Academy Award-winning film Forrest Gump, the title character ends his famous run just north of Monument Valley. Specifically, mile marker 13 on Highway 163, just outside of the tiny town of Mexican Hat, Utah, is where Forrest ended his iconic run, with Monument Valley’s distinct formations showing in the background. Morgan and his girlfriend visited this area on the way back from visiting his family in Colorado. “I always wanted to ride my bike on this stretch of Highway 163 through Monument Valley. We were goofing around at the spot, and wanted to play with the nostalgic hitchhiking trope. We got a lot of honks, but no one offered us a ride.”

I felt so blessed, on this last trip to Monument Valley, to see it in springtime. Who could believe there are so many flowers blooming in the desert? And to see it all at sunset...magnificent! For those who've asked, this is not HDR -- just me tweaking, burning, dodging, toning one shot. Sunset definitely helped, as the earth here is a dull rusty color much of the day.

My second goal was to revisit and photograph a number of scenes from several sites in Monument Valley I passed over during my first visit there this past March because of my strict time schedule where I had to move on to the House on Fire to catch the unique light there by a certain time of day .. which I also accomplished. My timing for my second visit to Monument Valley this year couldn't have been better because this time, I was there when the wildflowers were blooming. After finishing my photo shoot in White Pocket and Horse Head Bend, I scouted and photographed too many areas to count. One such site was the remnants of an ancient volcano a few miles north of Kayenta, Arizona a couple hundred yards off the east side of US 160 called Agathla Peak. It particularly attracted my attention because of all the wildflowers blooming around its base with horses grazing. I'll upload a photo of that at a later time. ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ My 2019 photography workshop schedule In 2019, I will be co-leading three photography workshops.
