Sinawava Falls from the Temple of Sinawava, Zion National Park, Utah. June 18, 2011.

This is my post for Watery Wednesday. To see more of our beautiful watery world, or to join and post your own pictures to share, click HERE.
The Temple of Sinawava is the last shuttle stop along the Zion Canyon Scenic Drive. The only way to get to it when we visited the park was by shuttle bus. I could not see much of the scenery while on the bus, so I was happy to get off so I could look around.
I was doubly happy when I spotted this waterfall high up on the canyon wall. There was only a thin stream of water coming over the edge, but it could be followed for quite a way down.

My telephoto lens brought the detail of the waterfall closer, but lost the beautiful canyon around Sinawava Falls. I couldn’t decide which photo I like best, so I’m posting both.

Goodness, that is large and impressive! Different looking from the usual waterfall. The size alone is awesome, you captured that well.

Very interesting and beautiful waterfall. This time my eyes admired red colored rocks. We do not have rocks with that color.
