Monument
Valley

Desert weather, ancient stone and the long transition from darkness into first light.

Field study · 16 frames
The desert is never still. It changes by the minute, and sometimes in a flash.

Made across Monument Valley, Hunt’s Mesa and Muley Point, these photographs trace storms, night skies and the changing color of first and last light across the sandstone landscape.
