A Panoramic View to the Waterpocket Fold in Capitol Reef National Park

            A view looking to the north while on the scenic drive heading back to the Fruita area in the national park. With a slight angle downward of my SLR camera and then some cropping, I was able to bring out a wider angle or panoramic view. I found those two best conveyed the towering heights of this monocline and cliff walls off in the distance. While at this roadside pulloff, I found that angle looking ahead where I could use the road itself as kind of leading line for a drive ahead to savor views of this national park in southern Utah.
