 This was an awesome area. This was taken at Sunset Point in Capitol Reef. I took a bunch of these as the sun set.

Just happened to hike out here not knowing what to expect and the area was a gooseneck canyon that looked just like the Grand Canyon, almost just as deep too. Awesome place!

The title's a tad over-wrought for me, but nice landscape.

This is a dramatic shot. Is it from an aircraft, or from a higher vantage point nearby.

Hard situation to get the right exposure on the shadows and highlights. You seem to have gotten the exposure on the cliff correct but the detail in the shadows seems to of suffered a bit.

Beautiful. I wouldn't mind seeing a little more detail in the shadowy areas.
