The layers of red and white Navajo Sandstone at Valley of Fire State Park helped me create this composition.

Nice one, Morris. Haven't been there yet, but on my list. Seeing this reminded me I need to go there soon.

Thank you Fred,

We loved it there. One day is enough time to get a good feel for the park. I could spend days exploring

That's an amazing area. It's the perfect playground for the photographer.

I love your pic, but I'd bump the brightness down a little and increase the contrast to really make the banding in the rock pop out.

I'd love to set up on that spot as a thunderstorm comes rolling in.

Hey Morris, I really like this. The longer I looked, the more I liked.

I love this rock. I've shot it once at sunset. You've done a great job. I think we were in similar locations for this view.

I take back my initial comments regarding adjustments. After I looked at your pic on a better screen I realized it looked great as is.

Thank you,

Thank you Mr. Fisherman. I suspected you had a monitor issue. I'm not brave enough to be in that spot with lighting around. That is probably because I was about 10 feet from a lightning strike, even in a car I was temporarily blinded and deafened.

Sweet comp!

I'd also love to see this shot again with low angle light.

Nice job Morris.
