The Towers of Silence are a wonderful feature within the Wahweap Hoodoos of Southern Utah, USA. The name was originally used by the famous photographer Michael Fatali who created an instant iconic image and location with his work. This location requires a bit of determination as you must hike eight miles in a generally dry river bed to get there. Morning light is generally best for this subject as the Tower of Silence is in sunlight while the cliff behind the tower remains in shadow to separate the main subject from the background as I have done in this image. The Wahweap Hoodoos area is a wonderful place to hike and photograph.
