The harshest conditions sometimes produce the most amazing shots. Something I know first had and embrace in photography. This is surely one of the best shots I've seen a long time. One of my favortites of your images Jay, which are some of the best landscapes out there. The light is so rare here. I've never seen something quite like this before. With so much dust/sand in the atmosphere, it's like a translucent curtain of gold on the horizon with great leading lines and sky to compliment. 7/7+

This is such a wonderful image. Lovely composition and stunning capture of the sky. I can sympathize with the pelting sand - I get it at Lake Michigan when I go out and get the waves!

What I like best about this one is the way the distant mountains appear like there is a giant holding a flashlight above them, searching for something. What's fascinating is that it appears we are looking up at them from below--a city above the clouds, floating there for all to see. One of the most dreamlike landscapes I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing one of your very best!

Just stumbled on this--it's gorgeous. However, my Bible gives: Yea though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I shall fear no evil, for Thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me...

You are right about the excat verse in the Bible...I have replaced the original with the correct verse. Thanks.

Jay, you have some great stuff, but this is your best. Not only yours, but one of the best I've seen on this sight. Great effort for this one...

7/7 without a doubt.

Jay ... just back from a week at the beach and have just seen your posting. Besides great ratings, you deserve more for waiting and shooting in the sand storm! (I hope your camera survived!) The lighting and the wait for it truly make this an absolutely wonderful shot :)

The camera survived fine, but the 28-135 IS lens is acting funny. I had that lens sitting in my bag and the blowing sand got in everywhere. Thanks for your comments.

WOW! Ooops... Excuse me while I pick up my jaw off the ground. Simply fantastic! Did you have the will power to destroy the One Ring?

I think your experience during the shoot is how Lord Buhda achieved enlightment. And when you finished adjusting this image in PS back in your room, that's when He reached Nirvana. ^_^

Wilson: HaHa!! That is the most original comment I have heard.

Thai: Thanks for the comment. The One Ring that controls them all? Nope...I am still trying to move planets with it. HeHe!!

and it payed handsomely. Jay, I am glad you posted the story behind the creation of this fine photograph. Too many underestimate the effort of will needed to attain something worthwhile. Great photography here! Regards.

It looks as though the light is coming from within the earth. It is spectacular and thank you for explanation of this most unusal lighting effect. Now if only I could take a picture like that:-)

If I saw that light I would probably have been too stunned to take the picture. Absolutely mesmerizing Jay. Could you please send me the info on the Fall field class in Zion/Bryce. I recently tried to hook up with RMSP but they are already booked. Thanks! Heather F
