First timer for this, enjoyed looking back through everyone’s images!

I shot a lot in March as I was on a five-week trip to the Southwest. I keep coming back to this image made on March 13 of an approaching rainstorm over the Grand Canyon.

Camera body: A7RV
Lens: FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GMII
Aperture: f/8
Filters: none
Short note on PP: standard Lightroom workflow which included broad dodging/burning to balance contrasts
Top vote (3p) + reason: pbraymond - this kind of quiet, serene scene makes me happy and if it’s in Ohio I love it all the more
Runner-up vote (2p): tsdevine - I’m pulled in by the colors and love covered bridges
Last vote (1p): ruthenium - this image makes me yearn to be strolling a warm white sand beach
