Drive Through Zion

A drive through Zion National Park shown at 2.5x speed. The drive is from the East entrance to the Main Entrance (in Springdale). The first time through this road, I was struck by the beauty of the road and the views, so I felt filming it was the best way to capture it. The scarred rock, the mile-long tunnel, hairpin curves, etc...all make this an incredible drive. Car was a (rented) Nissan Cube - filming was done on a Canon 7D with 10-22mm lens resting on the dashboard.

@Lonetraveler07 Thanks for your comment! I really love the 10-22mm - it's one lens I've never considered parting with as it's so good on a crop-body and has such a wide range of uses.

As for the Picture Style - I just used the "Standard" one, straight out of the camera. The video was also shot on cloudy white balance around dusk, so any inaccuracy with that combination may also account for some of vibrance you're seeing.

Cool video. I love this park and and can't wait to go back. Also I'm happy to see you used the 10-22mm. I've been thinking about getting this lens. It's good to see the wide perspective it gives. How do you like it?

Also what Picture profile did you use for this video? I know it's an overcast, but the colors in the rocks there are just incredible. It seems are though they are as vibrant as they could be in this video. Again thanks for the video and explanation.
