Your moon burst shot was crazy.

Amazing moon shot of that arch - your video made me want to shoot Arches at all times of the day!

You are very gifted Mads...thank you for sharing !

Great content, Mads! I'm headed to Moab this fall for this first time - very much looking forward to it!

Educative, funny and full of outstanding pictures once again.

Beautiful photography as usual, unfortunately disappointment is a big part of landscape photography but my philosophy is it always gives you a reason to come back to a location.

Great video. Thanks for including the camera settings. Heading there in Oct.

Very helpful. Many thanks for sharing

Beautiful images, Mads. As a Utah native I have visited this area many times but after I moved to the East coast I really began to appreciate its spectacular scenery.

Dude you killed it !!!! I love the insights and your photos are killer.

Stunning images as always, Mads! Loved hearing your solution to capturing the "moonburst" at the arch, as well as your discussion of some of the failed attempts and "lemons" you were handed by the night sky and other factors. Really helps give some context and told a good story. Even though these locations are heavily photographed, you got some great and unique results! Can't wait to go there myself!

Hehe yeah well, it's about making one long dedicated photography trip ;)

Mads, this is a place I know intimately. I've photographed Arches multiple times and each time there brings different compositions. The park just has so much to offer. Also, it is fairly close to Monument Valley to the south about three hours. Canyon lands, which I hope you did not miss, is basically "Across the street" from Arches. There is one park between Moab and Monument Valley that can offer up some amazing photographs. Gooseneck's state park. It is a strip of the San Juan river that winds its way southward and can offer up images almost as beautiful as horse shoe bend in AZ. Utah, is probably my favorite area so far of the U.S that I have had the chance to Photograph. I know I will be back there multiple times in the future. Great V-log as always. You are a true artist.

We did visit Canyonlands, but only for Mesa Arch and some viewpoints further south absolutely stunning! I would have loved to explore it more, but time didn't allow it. And I didn't know about Gooseneck's state park so missed that one, but wow it looks amazing! I really want to go back to Utah, it's absolutely stunning! :) And thanks a lot!

Hello Mads. I had the awesome opportunity Oct. 2016 to capture many of the arches you described in the video where my newly purchased 10-18mm gave me some real "keepers". Love the way you deal with the situations beyond your control, and "make it work". A true pro, as to which, I draw inspiration. Thanks. JB

Inspiring video. You do such a great job of combining the travel information with the photography, that almost every video you produce creates a desire to go to that location. I live in Utah, but have never been down to Arches. The time that I could go is during the summer, which doesn't seem ideal for photography. It is on our list to go see when I retire in a few years.

Great image of Landscape Arch Mads! Your videos make the destinations so appealing. I am saddened by this because these parks are already grossly overcrowded and they will certainly get more people now :) I have been to Arches many times and it is unique among the US national parks. Well done video. Light painting might be banned from Arches in 2018.

Great vid. Any suggestion for an Arch to photograph on the eclipse day (21.08.17) ? Delicate Arch may be overcrowded as the sun should be on the same line behind the arch (if i'm doing well in Photopills :-) )

Marc Schmittbuhl sorry no, not really... I haven't researched that much since I'm sadly not going to see the eclipse... :/

They have now banned light painting for commercial permit users at Arches which covers workshops as they charge money for the tours. So you weren't kidding when you said that pissed of a lot of photographers. Also Zion has done a similar ban in their park for commercial permit users (aka workshops) for the use of tripods. Apparently too many paths were being blocked.
