	Hasn't voted	Thanks, Neo. I wish I could better describe the joy of scrambling up the back side of that arch to see the spring sunshine blazing through the hole in the rock. Simply incredible. Sarah

Burning bush

Voted 10/10

That's what I thought of when I first saw this pic. I can just see Moses in total awe of this scene. What a great shot.

	Hasn't voted	Neat observation, Dean. At that time, I guarantee you my LUNGS were burning after the ascent to this arch, but...wow, the scene in the late-afternoon light took my breath away. Sarah

Reminds me of those commercial mixers that stretch and shape colorful taffy! Your picture makes mu mouth water in more ways than one, you see. Great work, be safe.
