I’ve tried on previous occasions to get a shot of the Watchman with decent light and without luck.  This evening’s light was tremendous…I also shot from a new location.  Previously, I set up on the bridge at the Canyon intersection – the classic shot.  Tonight I found a spot at the South Campground along the Virgin River with enough clearance to get the Watchman as well as some small riffles in the river.
