Photographing Zion, Fall 2024: Episode 1

[@hz7984]

Oh boy what a surprise! I just got up on what is 6:30am Christmas morning my time, in let's say a less than stellar mood. This does help a lot, *thank you* Ben! I'm eagerly looking forward to the other episodes on this trip. PS I loved how you let the sound of the hail transition into the calm of the stream. Well done!

Nice to see you back out there, Ben. Lovely work, as always.

Nice opening. I like the diary entry device and the pivot away from one video per one day of your trips. Good story telling. Also, thanks for releasing this early enough for a Christmas morning watch in Europe. Great present 🎄

Vision is everything. Nice photo!

[@markhyde1970]

Perfect Christmas morning viewing. Merry Christmas Ben 👍🏽

Wonderful photo of the pine cones, Ben. That would drive people nuts as a 1,000 piece puzzle.

Who knew that a bunch of pine cones could look so beautiful.

What a perfect start to Christmas Day , thanks for the present Ben hope you have a great day as well

[@TravisRhoads]

Really enjoyed that. The approaching storm sequence was great, I could listen to that over and over again.

Been waiting as patiently as I can for this round of videos to start haha, can’t wait to see the rest of the series.

Nice seeing the story behind the photo of the pinecones that's also in the print portfolio. Merry Christmas Ben.

Nice one Ben and Happy Christmas to you and yours

Great timing for a Ben Horne video. A Christmas treat. Merry Christmas everyone!

[@AndrewStuderVisuals]

Who knew fallen pine cones could be so beautiful! So beautiful!

[@brianmckeever5280]

Amazing how satisfying a simple collection of pine cones can be! Happy holidays!

[@fairwayfrank]

The new zine was waiting for us upon returning from our recent trip along with this first Zion episode. Both very much enjoyed and appreciated. Happy holidays to you and yours and wishing you more reflected light in the coming year.

Great start to the trip! Good to have the storm roll through to set up the rest of the trip

[@johnvoris5190]

An early Christmas gift from Ben! Always enjoy your videos and that was a beautiful photograph.

[@robertkoch3397]

Thanks as always, Merry Christmas.

[@robertstonephoto]

Wondeful! And an image from the Vol 2 of Reflected Light!

Good to see you back. it seems like it has been many months. Looks like Fall color may be a bust, but the pine cones/needles really did come out way better than I thought when you were composing that shot. Looking forward to the series. Take care.

color on this looks really off - just sharing to help . .
