Description and details:
When I first stumbled across a photo of this little known arch, I immediately started researching its location. After a few hours of digging, I had a pretty good idea of where to find it. However, I still couldn't determine how well it would align with the Milky Way.
Getting into the right position meant setting up my camera among a few cacti. Fortunately, I managed to avoid their spines during the shoot. The hike back to my car, however, had a different outcome. Let's just say I now have a very personal souvenir of that special night: a nice little scar on my wrist!
