Capital Reef National Park, Utah with UVU


I went with a UVU group for a weekend photography retreat back in May and just forgot to post it. We stayed at their field house which was extremely nice. I met lots of really cool people and had a great get away weekend for myself. We would get up really early to shoot with the sunrise and we would drive for miles to different spots for the sunset also. It was pretty cool. The photographers name was Rex- pretty cool since he's the only other one I have ever met except my father in law and my son. 





A part of the field house where we stayed. It had six or seven different buildings and was self sufficient for power and water.


We learned how to do night shots. This one took 30 minutes and a tripod





We hiked to a waterfall for this shot






I don't know why but I think this is my favorite of all my shots

We did some night painting. That was fun too.
