When I visited Arizona and Utah National Parks, I was amazed by the gorgeous scenarios. I would have liked to stay for a long long time, and I’d love to go back.
Soon?

I visited Canyonlands, Arches and Dead Horse State Park on a photo workshop. You can imagine the beautiful canvas that the photographers experienced. This is an under-visited part of the southwest with much to offer. I can’t wait for another trip to Moab.

Bryce Canyon is near the top of my list, but it’s obvious that there are more places to visit in the vicinity – need more time to vacation!
