Monument Valley Photography — Monument Valley’s landscapes are stunning to say the least. Add cowboy & voila!

Our trip throughout the Western Parks of the United States was truly a travel & landscape photographers dream! Monument Valley was certainly a highlight and this pictures sums it up. Famous for the drastic buttes and mesas seen in the backdrop, Monument Valley has been a featured location for many Hollywood movies during the cowboys and Indians era! We were so lucky to get this cowboy in the frame! You’ve got to come on our next western national parks tour!
