Excellent depth and composition,Marty.
Like the light and the sky...Very colorful image,well done.
At times I felt sooooo small while visiting and walking between the massive rock formations in Zion and Bryce...Have a wonderful day. #9104742

Thanks, everyone. You're in luck, Monnie. Those parks are only an hour from each other. Seriously, Julianne, let's do that. We ARE small, Maria. #9104938

I think you have stirred the desire in all of us to want to visit the national parks with all their beauty and splendor. Certainly some of the most gorgeous country one can see as you show us in your beautiful gallery filled with pictures of thiese wonders.
Gorgeous composition and framing highlight the beuaty of this place. Even the flat land in front has such pretty colors and shapes with the plants and rocks, then the lighting on the trees, that is so special, the huge rock formations of color and texture and shape, all against that gorgeous sky. A true work of beuaty that we can all enjoy in your wonderful gallery time and time again my friend. #9105124

I could get lost in this capture...the colors, the textures, the play of light and shadow off the face of the cliffs with the wondrous (perfectly timed for you) splash of sunlight warming up the cottonwoods. You and Mia manage to bring me there, even tho (as yet), I've never stepped into this most special place. Beautiful, Marty, beyond words. #9109589

Randy D. Dinkins level-classic December 17, 2010

Great light and composition here. I echo Frank above, I need to find a way out there to see it with my own eyes. Thanks for your presentation! #9110567
