Arches National Park, a photo from Utah, West

Photographer's Note

Arches National Park in Utah is known for its sandston arches, but also has many other formations throughout the park that tower over you as you pass through. This picture was taken in late May, so snow still covers the mountaintops in the distance. The rock formation on the left is just to the right of Balanced Rock, one of the more famous rock formations in the park. Hopefully I'll get a picture up of it shortly.

I recropped the image, decreased the saturation a bit from the original I had posted, and sharpened with USM.

This is really nice Amber. The red rock formations, contrasted against the blue sky and snow covered mountains make a really nice combination. Sharp focus and natural colors only add to the quality of the scene.

Amazing. I love the content and the form. My only suggestion is that the horizon appears to be crooked. Perhaps a slight rotation would make it appear level.
Best,
