I go all the way to the Grand Canyon and what do I want pix of??? Why, the equines, of course! I waited in my place for about an hour waiting for the afternoon daytrippers to come back from the mule ride.
Convert in RAW in CS3, dodged & burned a little using layers, a hint of guassian blur, levels, Hue/sat, resize, USM, save for web

Cristy I didnt get to vote on this challenge because of time restraints but I think this has been severely underrated, this is a fabulous shot. WOW, sometimes I just dont know what the voters are thinking!!! This is waaaay better than my submission and I would have given this a 10 without hesitation.
Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning. It's day two three now and I'm running late, sorry.
You got a lot of the depth and distance in here. 6
