A view of the Bountiful LDS Mormon Temple from Echo Peak, part of the foothills of the Wasatch Mountains. The deep blues of twilight are settling in as the orange and yellow shades of sunset recede below the horizon. In the distance one can see the city lights of Bountiful and Centerville, and the reflections of the sky off the still waters of the Great Salt Lake and Farmington Bay. Along the horizon, the peaks of Antelope Island, and those of the Stansbury and Oquirrh Mountains are visible.

Salt Lake City Downtown Winter Skyline - Utah

A view of downtown Salt Lake City at sunset, with the prominent snow-covered Wasatch mountains rising above some of the city’s largest skyscrapers. At the center of the picture is Temple Square, and one of the Mormon Churches first temples built over a 40 year period, and opened in 1893. Also visible is the Mormon Tabernacle completed in 1867, and home to the famous Mormon Tabernacle Choir.

The last rays of the sun reflect off skyscraper buildings, even the first light of evening appear in the temple’s spires.
