Oct. 28, 2024 We had arrived at Bryce Canyon the previous afternoon. I had gone out that evening and scouted out a couple of locations and discovered Fairyland Point, a location that on our previous visit to Bryce Canyon I had not found. Photo Pills told me that the sun would be coming up almost directly down the valley to the east of the main overlook. The weather forecast called for overcast skies so I didn’t set an alarm. Luckily, I woke up about 6:30am and got up to check the weather conditions. It was nearly clear skies so I quickly got dressed and headed out to the point.

I shot this at 300mm focal length. The short distances to the nearest objects from the overlook required me to shoot all but the top two rows of the images using focus bracketing There are 6689 individual focus bracketed images yielding 495 focus stacked images, 11 rows x 45 columns, used to create this shot. My settings were f/11, 1/800th sec. ISO 400
