Balanced Reflection

Water gathered in small pools all over the sandstone basins of the area immediately after a winter snow storm, providing an opportunity to capture Balanced Rock in a reflection. I shot this one a few hours before sunset, while clouds still gathered on the distant horizon. In the distant background are Turret Arch and the La Sal Mountains. Another great adventure with Dustin LeFevre and Steve Howa.
