April 21, 2012 - Arches National Park, Part 2

Since we had not worn ourselves out we decided to take the Upper Viewpoint Trail for Delicate Arch.

It is way up there.

A telephoto of Delicate Arch from about where the Lower Viewpoint is.

The Upper View.

A telephoto of the arch.

A crop of the above photo to show how much detail we can get.

Compare it to what we could get with the Nikon 8700 in 2004, which was also a crop.  The Canon SX10 IS has a much larger zoom range.

People by Delicate Arch.

We moved on to the Windows area.

The Windows from another trail since the parking lot was full.

Is that a person?

A crop of the telephoto says, "Yes".

Now they are standing.
