Mesa Arch Milky Way Panorama

Arching over the Arch

How early do you have to arrive at the famously crowded Mesa Arch, in Canyonlands National Park, Utah, to beat the crowds? Preeeetty early. Even in the middle of a spring night our group wasn't alone, but there were few enough of us that we could take turns moving lights and headlamps around. It was fun to be here hours before the masses came and crowded around us.

Seeing @jarvie and @caseygrimley post pictures from recent nighttime adventures in the Moab area makes me nostalgic for the good times: our Stars & Cars trip three years ago was pretty epic!

This panorama was stitched from a series of 10-second exposures taken with the Nikon D750 and Rokinon 24mm f/1.4.
