Monument Valley: Navajo Nation

Hi Dana

Your handling of the bw colors is impressing. And there is so much depth in the picture that you expect the picture to reach al the way to the Pacific. :-)

Well done.

Tommy

Well composed and good post.

Tommy, and, Franz, thanks for your comments. I think I am, like most who visit the Monument Valley impressed with the raw beauty. Sometimes I get lucky with a shot. This is one of those times. Again, thanks for the encouragement.

My first thought when I saw the thumbnail was Ansel Adams. Impressive B & W image.

Arthur, after that wonderful comment I think I will retire for the day with a bottle of Scotch and a smile on my face. Thanks.

Hi Dana,

 

very nice tones and contrast and incredible depth. I don't think you got lucky, you have made a very good photo of the natural power of this scene that so obviously impressed you. Great work! Kind regards, Vincent

Vincent, thanks for such positive feedback. I feel "lucky" when I "get it right"; meaning when I get the shot I needed and can accomplish in PP what I intended. Sometimes I am not so "lucky"; maybe most of the time. But, when it comes out the way I envisioned it I do feel fortunate.

Superb! Evokes the great Mater Ansel Addams. Bravísimo. Into my favorites. DG

Daniel, a sincere thanks for your comment. It is not quite 08:00 so I will have to wait for a Scotch to celebrate your words. At least until 10:00. Saludos, Dana
