On top of Muley Point, Utah, there is a shallow depression where water pools and vegetation thickens — a corridor of sage and scrub that most people walk past on their way to the obvious view. Steinback found it, lost it, and found it again. She came back several times, waiting for the light to rake across the desert floor at the right angle. Using a telephoto lens to compress the distance, she brought the near and far into conversation — yellow wildflowers and silver sage in the foreground, the strange eroded rock formations of the canyon country floating in the middle distance. A scene tucked away inside a landscape already full of things worth seeing. This image rewards the patient eye. The more you look, the more it gives. Every Distant Dawn print is professionally produced and custom framed, arriving ready to hang. This fine art landscape photograph is printed on premium archival photo paper to preserve the warmth of the desert light and the subtle depth of the canyon beyond, creating a print that stays with you.
