T

Located just outside Colorado Springs, the Garden of the Gods is a small but breathtaking park. With its red sandstone rock formations, the park gives off an otherworldly vibe that will make you feel like you’re on another planet. As a photographer, you won’t want to miss the opportunity to capture the beauty of this natural wonder.

Navigating the park is easy and can be done entirely on foot. With our photography gear in tow, we can explore the park’s many trails and capture stunning images. If needed, we can also drive between the numerous roadside lots to make our jaunts shorter.

One of the best things about Garden of the Gods is the abundance of beautiful rock formations. These structures make for great photo opportunities and are sure to impress. For an added bonus, the snow-capped Pikes Peak serves as a breathtaking backdrop for your images. The contrast between the peak and the red rocks creates a truly stunning image.

While it’s possible to photograph the park throughout the day, the best opportunity for capturing the perfect shot is at dawn. Late afternoon on a cloudy day can also provide some stunning opportunities. Keep in mind that the light from the sunset can be blocked by the neighboring mountains, so planning your trip around the best lighting is crucial.

As you explore the park, you may come across rock climbers scaling the red towers. These climbers make for great sports photography subjects. From far away to show scale or up close to capture the action, these athletes are an exciting addition to any photography excursion.

It’s important to note that Garden of the Gods is only available as part of a multi-day trip to other destinations, such as The Great Sand Dunes. This park is truly a photographer’s dream, with its stunning rock formations, natural beauty, and unparalleled opportunities to capture breathtaking images.

Whether you’re a professional photographer or just enjoy snapping photos for fun, Garden of the Gods is a destination you won’t want to miss. With its unique features, stunning landscape, and sports photography opportunities, this park is a true gem. So pack your gear and get ready to capture some incredible images at Garden of the Gods.
