FOLLOW ME 2 ➸ MONTICELLO, UTAH (PART 1)

I just returned from Utah, and I'm already reminiscing over the stunning skies and sky scraper mountains. I went on a trip with some of my family and friends to explore the area around Monticello, Utah. The population is approximately 2,000 people. So very small. I love it because everybody knows everybody. The first night we arrived there I walked to a gas station to buy some snacks, and the cashier said to me "You're not from around here?" It was something straight out of a movie, haha. Every morning we would wake up around 5am to drive to the country to watch the sunrise. I remember first experiencing the sunsets and saying to my dad, "Why aren't the sunsets at home like this?" He explained that back at home we are surrounded by trees and buildings. So we aren't able to witness a 360 view of the sky. One night there was a particular star that was shining brighter than all of the others in the sky. We found out that the glowing star was actully Venus, to the right of it were Jupiter and Mars. I captured the planets in a non focused image at the bottom of the blog post. Take a look for yourself. Here are my pictures in part one of my trip to Monticello, Utah! xo, N
