Milky Way over Arscenic Arch
A nice payoff for what ended up being an adventurous night last night. For some reason, I remembered this arch being a lot closer to the road, and the approach being fairly straight forward. It was not. Ended up being 3/4 of a mile in pitch black, over somewhat complex territory. Big props to Wyoming Dave for bringing along Mr. Geepus, an iPod, and some speakers while we waited for the 1/20th moon to set (bottom right.) Notice the small shooting star over the arch as well.
Poison Springs, Utah.

Great pic. I really like the night shots you have posted up over time. I need to give that a go this summer while camping.
Did you stobe the arch or light it up with a big flashlight? Need to learn how to set something like this up. Care to share you exposure setup?
Thanks

I prefer the more recent picture of little Egypt. That is way cool! Although the shooting star is awesome in the first picture.

Those are fantastic Dan. Sorry to have missed you and WyoDave. The guys that I was with on Saturday were in way too much of a hurry to get home. Steve and Clark said you were skinnier. Sounds like you need to hang out with the Mapleton boys and have a dutch oven dinner or two. After all, Dutch oven John and I have beat anorexia.

yeah, bummed to have missed you guys. i was there friday night, but didn't come down to 'thrax, since it seemed there were tons of people.
not sure i can say i am really skinnier than before. but 3 months of asian food probably didn't bulk me up too much, that's for sure.
hopefully next time
