<p>[QUOTE=&quot;drathbun, post: 1646328, member: 42789&quot;]<font size="2">The problem that I have with UT-07 (or perhaps it&#039;s the attraction) is that viewpoint is one that most people will never see. In order to see the arch from the other side you either have to hike off the trail, or you have to use a very long zoom lens from the Delicate Arch Viewpoint tail that ends up overlooking the canyon beyond the arch. UT-02 is the &quot;classic&quot; pose for the Delicate Arch, and is the one Utah used on their license plates for a while.</font></p><p><font size="2"><br /></font></p><p><font size="2">But I do like #7, as I have taken one of my favorite pictures of all time there.</font></p><p><font size="2"><br /></font></p><p><font size="2">UT-01 is showing the Double-O Arch, which is also on the home page for <a href="http://www.nps.gov/arch/index.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.nps.gov/arch/index.htm" rel="nofollow">Arches National Park</a>. UT-03 and UT-05 show the skyline arch. UT-06 shows the Turret Arch, from the North Windows Area.</font></p><p><font size="2"><br /></font></p><p><font size="2">Arches is one of my favorites spots in the entire country, can you tell? </font><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><font size="2"></font></p><p><font size="2"><br /></font></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><font face="Arial"><br /></font></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><font face="Arial"></font></span>For my money (ha, literally) all of the picture options present a &quot;legible landscape feature at the scale of a coin.&quot; I think they&#039;re just trying to pick something other than the Delicate Arch, perhaps because it&#039;s been &quot;done before&quot; and often. But in my opinion, there are two arches that are closely identified with the park, and Delicate Arch is by far the most overwhelming choice. I hope they don&#039;t go with UT-01 as suggested.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just noticed that UT-07 shows a person in the image, which gives a sense of scale for the arch. That&#039;s very cool.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
