Arches National Park is one of the most visited parks in the United States and the Delicate Arch is one of the most photographed landscapes in the world. Still, even with the crowds of people eagerly awaiting the sunset, it's difficult to resist the 2 mile uphill trek to spend at least one evening with one of nature's most appealing visual scenes. The evening light is only good for about 1/2 hour, and during part of that time, a mom and two kids romped gleefully beneath the arch. But, a little patience waited them out and left me with a series of images of the arch.
