I'm so honored to receive a mark of excellence, thank you! I took this while on my way out of Zion NP around 10 PM after catching sunset on Angel's Landing and walking back out of the canyon (I did manage to hitchhike half of the distance). I skipped this spot several times during the trip because everyone seems to take this same photo. But since it was night I decided to brave the cold and see how it looked in the moonlight - this was a 4 minute exposure taken just as the moon was peeking over the valley walls. There was no wind at all so the trees look like they are completely frozen in time. I was surprised to find that so much color was captured even in the dim moonlight!
