(1888PressRelease) October 02, 2026 - Fine art landscape photographer Alexander Vershinin has captured a rare atmospheric phenomenon at one of Utah's most photographed landmarks: a dense layer of fog settling beneath Mesa Arch in Canyonlands National Park, an event that occurs only a handful of times per year. The resulting image, titled "Skyfall," is the centerpiece of an expanded body of work documenting the high-desert landscapes of the American Southwest, and it arrives alongside a new free resource: the "Ultimate Guide to Photographing Utah's Landscapes," offering GPS coordinates and field notes for five of the region's most iconic locations, including the Bonneville Salt Flats, Monument Valley, Delicate Arch and Toroweap Overlook.

"I follow the environment. I determine the areas that are in need of conservation and then I proceed to photograph them for the benefit of humanity," said Vershinin, describing the philosophy behind a body of work built around remote, often overlooked corners of the American wilderness. His landscape photography is produced using large-format panoramic equipment, including a Linhof Technorama 617 film camera and a Phase One IQ180 digital back, and is printed using Fujiflex Crystal Archive and Lumachrome TruLife acrylic processes for galleries and private collectors.

Alexander Vershinin specializes in panoramic photography of remote natural environments across Arizona, Utah, California, Oregon and Wyoming. The free Utah field guide and prints from the "Skyfall" series are available at vershinin.biz. Contact: Alexander Vershinin, vershinin.photography ( @ ) gmail dot com.
