Photography In The National Parks: The Armchair Photography Guide To Bryce Canyon National Park – Part 1, Sunrise Point To Sunset Point

Following on the heels of last month's Canyonlands National Park Armchair Photography Guide, photographer Rebecca Latson chose to keep things in Utah a little while longer and pen a guide for Bryce Canyon National Park. In this month's article, she provides tips, techniques, and a general overview of the photo ops available within this geologically astounding national park. Rebecca's Armchair Photography Guides are for those who cannot or do not wish to venture very far away from car, camper, cabin or tent, as well as for those visiting this national park for the first time, or who are re-visiting the park and might find the advice listed here helpful for future visits.
