Side view of Goosenecks

Nov 9 2026 | By: Jim Zuckerman Photography

This is another shot of Goosenecks State Park in Utah. The shot you always see is from the parking area down to the San Juan River. Using a drone, though, means you can maneuver to any other vantage within range of battery life and staying below 400 from the launch site. This shot shows a completely different composition as the drone flew to the west and then angled back to capture the river from the side. Even commercial scenic flights can't fly this low; they have to stay 2000 feet above the park which means 4000 feet above the canyon floor. I was thrilled to get this kind of shot because I'd never seen it before. I waited for the sun to go below the horizon to take advantage of the diffused light. My camera settings were 1/30, f/1.8, 100 ISO and the lens was 24mm.
