Delicate Arch is the 52 ft (16 m) tall freestanding natural arch located in Arches National Park near Moab, Utah. It is the most widely-recognized landmark in Arches National Park and is depicted on Utah license plates and on a postage stamp commemorating Utah's centennial anniversary of statehood in 1996. The Olympic torch relay for the 2002 Winter Olympics passed through the arch. I tried to shoot it from a whole new perspective from a far away vantage point with my 300 mm lens. This is a highly cropped image, you are viewing it at pixel level from my 21MP Canon 5DII. Enjoy! P.s. I left one person in the lower left corner to give a hint of the scale of the arch.
