I need to dig through my archived hard drives for the DSLR shots of monument valley, but here's a behind the scenes shot of a timelapse I was taking from my room in the View Hotel for Father's Day 2016.

A few from a visit a number of years ago:
The hotel is an awesome place to set up your camera and shoot the stars at night too.I've there once 10 years ago. I stayed at the hotel, drove around the road on the valley floor once & moved on . I didn't even know about Hunt's Mesa. Looks like I missed out by not doing my homework.
You need to get back there Rick. Grab Ben and go on a road trip.
This is super cool Tom! Love those colors and those clouds.
I like your behind the scenes shot Johnny.
Your timelapse would be cool to see too, post it here or in it's own thread. We don't have a lot of people doing timelapse, but they sure can be cool.
Taken from out on the road about 3/4 around. The gate was open and I did not know I was not supposed to be out there early so I had and early morning experience.
Awesome Ben! I sure like this. The gate gets opened early because of the tours.
Like Kyle I haven't been there either. Hopefully these images will help me plan a trip soon.
Only one?
This is a good one though, so I am glad you posted it. It's great that you got the moon into it too.

Oh, man, Jim! Hunt's Mesa is on my list of places to shoot from one day!
Here are a few, I've posted them already but I really liked the skies I had this year.
And this pano....11 shots, nearly 10' wide, running from the Hub on the left to The Three Sisters on the right. I'm having it printed in a tryptich. Should have it hanging in the store sometime next week.

And for fans of old westerns, especially John Wayne films, my favorite of John Ford Point.

My wife and I lucked out with nice clouds on our first and so far only visit a few years ago.
This looked like an obvious face.

I was out slogging around in the snow yesterday so I didn't see this. Here are a few from areas not shown in this thread.
The classic image of the mittens and Merrick Butte with foreground rocks. This is right near the visitor center.
The Tear Drop. You need a guide to get to this location just past Gouldings Lodge on a private road.
You need a guide to get to this location of the sand dunes near the yei bei chai and the Totem Pole.
