Point Supreme, Cedar Breaks National Monument

Just like Bryce Canyon, Cedar Breaks also features hoodoos as a main attraction for tourists. In some way, it is like a miniature Bryce Canyon.

Point Supreme is one of some roadside view points in this park. This is also a place most people get the first glimpse of the Cedar Breaks Amphitheater because the visitor center is located here. While hoodoos at Bryce Canyon Amphitheater may be in a more dramatic way than here, the scenery here has the charm in its own way.

I've been to Cedar Breaks for some times. I got this shot when the sun shuttled among the built-up clouds. While the time is close to the noon, the lighting in fact is pretty good. The shadow on the ground makes the landscape more alive. The blue sky provides additional color contrast.

So don't think only golden hours the only best time for a good photograph. If you are willing to spend time observing, you may find any time can be the best time.
