Landscape Photo Competition 6 2012 : Entry Number 432

Great contrast, colour saturation and a bold composition make this photo. The sunlight and shade on the rock formations have been siezed beautifully, the sky is full of drama, the left/right not-quite-mirror effect is strong and interesting. This could have been a winner but for its lack of sharpness and fine detail...

Thank you for selecting this as 2nd. I appreciate the critique as well. it snowed this day in Monument Valley and I was in a rush to get there and could see the storm from great distance, so I had to settle to pull over to side of the road with 200mm lens to grab this. Handheld Canon 60D, f6.3, 1/3200, ISO400, 200mm
