The colors in the water are so strange from the reflections of the canyon, it looks almost like spilt oil. Great vastness inthis.

A familiar vista, expertly rendered. The water complements the sky.
03/13/2009 04:20:43 PM
Another place on my list of places to visit. Your photo helps move it up a couple spots :D Looks like you used a polarizer for the sky as well, which turned out really nicely.
03/13/2009 04:18:02 PM
