The guide that used to take people up there died several years ago - what guide did you get for the trip ?
Lovely shot

Congrats on the comp, one of the better takes from that beautiful place. I agree, it seems bit over saturated and toning it down over all would help diminish the blue/green/yellow cast...

I like this as you have presented it... Lovely

It does seem like a painting...that is why I like what you have.
And the light from the sky seems to add to its beauty, for me.

Unfortunately that view is on private Navajo land and you have to pay for a guided tour by one of the Navajo tour operators. It was well worth it, they provide transportation, tents and sleeping bags and a campfire cooked dinner and breakfast and leave you free to shoot while they set up etc.

I second that. I did one of the Navajo tours, and it was well worth it. Our Navajo guide knew all the best photo opportunities, and her special huge-wheeled truck got us to places no Jeep or other "normal" off-road vehicle could manage. In my opinion, you would be wasting your time, money, and effort if you go to Monument Valley without the special benefits of at least one Navajo tour.

Beautiful tones. Painterly, almost. Makes me want to go back to Utah to visit Monument Valley. Only been to Zion thus far.
