A better than average tourist shot - I really like the composition and wide angle approach that creates the "curvature of the earth" kind of effect. Good sky to compliment it, too.

Comment by CNovack:
I think you are trying to emulate Brent_Ward's ribbon winner (was a bit of a challenge to find:-) ). The canyon and rocks are indeed very beautiful and you captured some nice light rays but the richness in tones and colors are lost because your contrast is very flat. The colors and tones are very dull and I know that it must not have been like that while standing there. Those colors and contrasts really need to pop for the viewer to say "wow". It is an above average shot in the composition of elements it just needs that little extra boost in the contrasts and perhaps saturation. Adjusting the the Highlight/Midtones/Shadows and/or Contrast levels can really make the contrast between the light and dark areas pop more. A little bit more of a saturation adjustment might also benefit the photo to add a touch more vibrancy of color. None-the-less wonderful capture.

wow, there is a real sense of mood in this image, a majesty about the lanscape as it tucks away for the night...I feel like I am there...the lights and darks are so powerful in this, it makes me feel a sense of danger that I am almost about to fall into it...9

Great shot, but I can't figure out what it's Deja Vu of. None of the tiele search items come up with it. Maybe thecanyon4me? I won't DNMC you, but I can't rate based on the challenge.
