"First Light Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah "By Robert Park Thor’sHammer, The Hunter

Via Flickr:
Thor’s Hammer, The Hunter, Thirty to forty million years ago this rock was “born” in an ancient lake that covered much of Western Utah. The primary weathering force at Bryce Canyon is frost wedging which creates mazes of abstract cities and figures. I planned my arrival at Bryce to place the rising sun behind The Hammer so the silhouette would block the sun bringing the glowing light bounced off the canyon walls. © Robert Park http://www.robert-park.com"

The banks of the Yellowstone river are lined with trees that struggle to survive in the volcanic remnant hillsides. Drawn to the abstract serenity of the morning light on the river, I created this impression of life on the riverbanks.

"Truckin" Grateful Dead Head Cholla, Joshua Tree NP I was photographing sunrise backlit cholla in Joshua Tree this winter and while I was entranced by the glowing backlighting effect I was unaware that this Dead Head fan was out for a morning jog. He looked at me saying "Dude That's An Awesome Camera" and ran off, but not before I got an image off. © RobertPark www.robert-park.com

The Subway is a mysterious keyhole slot in the west fork of the NorthCreek in Zion National Park.

The Subway is a mysterious keyhole slot in the west fork of the North Creek in Zion National Park.
It is a very strenuous and slippery nine mile round trip that few people ever get to see.
The pools get their color from the algae that thrive in the cold water that never sees sunlight
For most of the year.

"Metlako Falls" is a waterfall on Eagle Creek in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area in Hood River County, Oregon,

"Metlako Falls" The falls drop out of narrow, calm pool, and thunder into an impressive gorge. Though the falls are usually cited as being of a Plunge form, because of the narrow constriction, the fire hosing tendency of the water as it drops over the lip of the cliff, as well as the obvious depth of the pool at the base of the falls. © Robert Park www.robert-park.com

Also called Upper Horsetail Falls, Ponytail falls emerges from two rounded faces of volcanic rock and gracefully drops into a shallow pool. I wanted to portray the gracefulness and serenity of this waterfall so I got down low into the stream where moss covered boulders dominated the foreground. the slow shutter speed and graceful lines in extract an elegance that is timeless.
