Bryce Canyon Before Sunset - This truly is God's country. Staring into the valley below, one can feel the significance of insignificance; that we are just one tiny bit of matter that encompasses the universe. Our planet offers such treasures and places like Bryce show us God's art. As artists, it is our duty to preserve these treasures for all humanity. There are so many people in the world that will never set their eyes on these magnificent landscapes. It is our duty as nature photographers to bring it to them.

In God's Country
(Bono)

Desert sky
Dream beneath the desert sky
The rivers run but soon run dry
We need new dreams tonight

Desert rose
Dreamed I saw a desert rose
Dress torn in ribbons and in bows
Like a siren she calls to me

Sleep comes like a drug
In God's Country
Sad eyes, crooked crosses
In God's Country

Set me alight
We'll punch a hole right through the night
Everyday the dreamers die
See what's on the other side

She is liberty
And she comes to rescue me
Hope, faith, her vanity
The greatest gift is gold

Sleep comes like a drug
In God's Country
Sad eyes, crooked crosses
In God's Country

Naked flame
She stands with a naked flame
I stand with the sons of Cain
Burned by the fire of love
Burned by the fire of love
