Last week I received an invite to hike to The Wave in northern Arizona. BLM only issues 20 much sought after permits a day, so I was happy at the opportunity. I had not been there in five years, so I had a chance to update older images or take new compositions. We started hiking in two hours before sunrise and returned to the trailhead two hours after sunset. I ended up liking the images produced in the shade or reflected light as the purples and pastels shows nicely. I had Clover, my GWP pup, leashed to my waist the whole time. She did surprising well and did not come close to toppling the camera tripod :-) I have posted many more images this Wave trip on my website, if you may be inclined to look further. https://www.plateaulightphotography.com/New-Work/The-Wave-February-2020/

Any info on how those formations came to be? Sand became cross bedded and then the sandstone was eroded away by water http://www.geologypage.com/2012/11/the-wave-arizona.html

Where one starts hiking at the Wirepass trailhead is in Utah, but the Wave itself is just south of the AZ line by less than a mile.
