## Caption

I keep zooming in, and the desert keeps winning.

Six formations, six different hours of light:

1️⃣ East Mitten and its neighbors - seen from The North Window at sunset.

2️⃣ Three Sisters - Three Sisters — also from The North Window, at sunset.

3️⃣ West Mitten - an hour before sunset, near the start of the Loop.

4️⃣ Merrick Butte - at Artist's Point, just before sunrise.

5️⃣ Mitchell Butte - from high above, on the rim of Mustang Canyon.

6️⃣ The King On His Throne -the very first stop on the Loop, right as the gold hour began.

Every time I pull the lens in tighter, the same thing happens: the rock doesn't get closer. It just gets more impossibly itself.

Which one pulls you in the most?
