Great timing for this challenge. Learned of it the day before flying to Vegas for vacation. This was taken near the entrance to Zion NP. Rotated, levels auto fix, contrast auto fix, cropped, resized, and unsharp mask.
1st DP Challenge submission!

Some purist would say that to shoot a landscape, you should have your camera in a landscape orientation. I'm not a purist and your composition spits in thier faces. I like it. 10
Awesome shot of a beautiful scenery. The shadows lead me to believe it's early or late in the day, so I don't know if you could have played with the colors a bit in photoshop to bring out more of the sunset orange feel to it that I believe was there in reality. Hope to see this in the top 20 still. Good luck with this awesome picture.
Zion is an amazing place. I like the color bands in this picture - blue at the top, then red and green, and yellow at the bottom. This photo would be helped if it had some leading lines to emphasize the depth and draw the eye.
