Looking down

We found a scenic overlook behind the high school in Page Arizona (of all places) that allowed us to peer into an arm of the Glen Canyon. Shot in RAW. Played with the vibrance and the clarity sliders a little to pop the texture on the rock.

Shutter 1/20, f/5, ISO 400, focal length 77mm

  2. Very nice, looks like you had a great view, but where is your little canoe? Or raft? Weren't you going to shoot the rapids? Love the rocky details.

  6. That photo is beautifully taken and processed. Yhe main thing was that you took it. If Boomer had taken it we would need sunglasses to look at it, cause unlike you and me he tends to go overboard sometimes. Beautiful!
