Weekly Photo Challenge – An Unusual Point of View

Canyonlands Grotto Sky

Last week, I got to spend time in one of my favorite places with two of my favorite people! My sister visited us for two weeks, and the middle part of our trip included a visit to Moab, Utah. Becky and I usually travel on our own but this time time, we invited my husband, Peter. The day after we arrived, we were treated to one of the most wonderful experiences I’ve ever known – a classical concert in a remote natural amphitheater next to the Colorado river in Canyonlands National Park. As part of the Moab Music Festival, musicians play chamber music in this magical place.

Everyone is transported via jet boat  down the river to this hidden location in the red rock canyon – The Grotto. And get this: they even carry a six foot long Steinway grand piano to the location for the concert.  I chose this shot because it was taken looking straight up at the sky through the opening in the rock walls – an unusual point of view indeed!
