Taken at Grand Canyon about a year ago. I have this in a few challenges online at the moment. Thought I'd share here.

I'm noticing that through resizing the quality has suffered. I took the high rez image and scaled it down for here. Nevertheless - you get the idea.

Wow, amazing landscape. The strong horizontals in the rocks give a great contrast to the cloud.

Magnificent looks almost like a composite of two separate images. The color pallet on the bottom half is so dramatically different form the top

This smoke cloud is very similar to what we see here in S Florida when they burn sugarcane fields just before they harvest them. They burn on days when the air is still, so that they can control the fire, and the cloud of smoke rises so high that it condenses the vapor in the smoke when it gets into the cooler higher atmosphere.
This image is quite striking with the deep reds of the canyon and blue of the sky around the cloud of smoke.
