SANCTUARY

The Watchman glows as a storm lifts revealing the last light of an Autumn sun.

As I drove south on the 15 freeway towards Zion storm clouds were gathering ahead, and I could sense this evening would be amazing.  Shooting at the Canyon Junction bridge is never a pleasant experience, but I had little options after cutting my arrival so close.  Luckily I managed to squeeze into a small parking space before rushing to the bridge to join the herd of photographers.  As we watched the dynamic clouds assemble as the sun descended, a fierce ray pierced through the sky to ignite the Watchman.  Shutters exploded as I could not imagine my luck that night.  I had captured an amazing sunset over likely the most iconic scene in Zion… which meant I would never have to shoot at this bridge ever again.
