Great shots and thanks for sharing. Funny thing is that i just sat down tonight and googled The Wave and your gallery came up. The reason I did this; is that I was just staring to plan a trip to south Utah and you have just saved me a ton of time.
Thanks so much! I think we will do your route.

Enjoyed it a lot.

Awesome collection Zane, I am overwhelmed by the sheer number of beautifully composed images you have here. You have an astounding skill with the camera, perhaps it's time to give up the day job??

My heavens, Zane. these are breathtaking images from the Colorado Plateau. I was just there for a 5-day visit in mid-April but am truly humbled by the galleries you've shared. FWIW, here are some of my favorites from the same neck o' the woods:http://www.pbase.com/pricklypear/utaznv2004

Wow! What a fun and exhausting trip this must have been! The shots you've collected here are great and well worth the effort of all the traveling around. A number of these locations are still on my "to-do" list. Thanks for the visual tour.

Thanks for the kind comments; I have a Fuji S2 Pro and most of these shots were taken with a Nikkor AFS 17-35mm zoom lens.
