Craggy Peaks of Zion

This is the range of mountains that greet you as you enter Zions National Park from the southwest. I shot this as an HDR, processed it in 'painterly' and then took the micro-contrast to 100%. Initally the mountains had some color and detail in them but they looked strange until I moved the micro-contrast. I shot it right at sunset so the clouds were beautiful pink. There is actually a hole through the peaks that appear to be an arch on the right side. LYLE

  1. I think I saw those same clouds over Marshall this morning and they are still pink. Good Job! The rugged mountains silhouetted against the pink clouds and blue sky really make this a photograph that should be displayed. I found the hole, where is the closeup of it? Bruce
