Wall Arch, a photo from Utah, West

Photographer's Note

Photography in Arches National Park is not only about an object but also about the colour on it. Early morning and the late afternoon are the best time to photograph the sandstone around this place. This is why this place is sometime called "colour country". The photograph shown here is a part of Wall Arch. Strong Sun light in the back side of the this arch added amazing hues to the stone.

Photograph has been cropped, warmified little bit and reduced the light.

Fipak you are doing well by seeing the rewards of shooting in backlight. I love that approach too. Very tricky but well worth the challenge. This is very nice..Lovely color ans shapes too. Thanks for commenting on my photo too. Keep up the good work.

very original shot, one even wonders about the texture of the red rock, it has a paper appearance, but mostly, as you shot from that angle and cut the frame around, its shape has something organic, and you retrieved a dynamic from it that is probably not existing from a more trivial angle. The colors are the rich, classic, hues we associate with the american southwest. 'All adds up!

Wow what a beautiful view
I took my trip to Denver Colorado about 2 months ago and everytime I past by a National Park along freeway 15 and 70 I keep wishing I have more time just to stop by and take a look of these beautiful places, but we didnt have time
thanks for sharing Dipak
