Stars over Temple of the Moon

IronRodArt - Royce Bair (NightScapes on Thursdays) has added a photo to the pool:

Starry night sky over Temple of the Moon - a sandstone monolith located in the remote Cathedral Valley of Capital Reef National Park. Temple of the Sun is in the distance, on the left. The Temple of the Moon is about 280 feet (85 m.) high. Photographed in one 15 seconds exposure, 2 hours after sunset. The glow on the horizon is the approaching moonrise. (This is a remote area, in the northern most region of the park, that is only accessible with a four-wheel drive vehicle via primitive dirt roads and river crossings!)
