Wow, thats super cool. I drove through monumnet valley last summer. There were no planes though. :( I like how this photo captures the size of the monument and the agility of the plane all in one. Good Job!

good job... not a bad placing in a FS :)

That scares the heck out of me. Great shot though. Top 40 - look at you.

what a cool shot - love the cropping up close - I really wish the sky were not as blotchy as it appears

way to go

This is a great photograph, if you had just a little more of the rock spire showing on the far left this would have been a 10. 9

Very cool. The plane is so small in comparison.
 06/04/2007 03:27:27 AM
hahaha, great shot!
 06/03/2007 05:45:54 PM
rocks seem over smoothed ... maybe too much noise reduction?
 06/03/2007 04:05:37 PM
Looks like you were in the right place at the right time...excellent colors.

Great capture - Love the juxtaposition - This should ribbon.

Needs a level contrast. I watched these races at this location on tv the other week.

RedBull air race in Monument Valley i guess. I bought my tickets for the London race.
Oh by the way good looking shot ;-)

Now that is different :)

Nicely seen! Bold and tantalizing with a touch of the surreal.
 06/01/2007 08:23:56 AM
Wow, that looks a lot of fun. I would have liked to have seen more of the ground, to see how high the butte is, but I guess you couldn't have told the pilot to hang in one spot while you tried to achieve the most perfect composition.
