Trio

What comes in threes? Submit an image for this week’s photo theme, Trio.

In October, I hit the road for a few weeks to explore Utah and Arizona: two states that have some of the most awe-inspiring sights and surreal landscapes I’ve ever seen. One afternoon, I toured Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park with a Navajo guide, who taught us about this sacred land and the Navajo Nation’s history.

While I could share numerous images from Monument Valley, I wanted to highlight this iPhone photo I snapped of the East and West Mitten Buttes and Merrick Butte — three unique geological formations that form a triangle:

Individually, each butte stands strong, but together — as a trio — they’re an even more incredible sight. Nature is grand.

For this challenge, share your own take on the week’s theme, trio.
