Nicely done, Bryan. It is a difficult image to pull off. You have blended together the fore/mid/background well and avoided what can sometimes give the viewer the feeling of looking at two different images in one photo (I find it distracting). I might print it with a little more atmospheric distance, but that is my Death Valley -- a shake 'n' bake in an oven set too high.

This is the backside of Manly Beacon -- I believe...it has been awhile and sometimes it can be difficult knowing exactly where one is. At the back end of Golden Canyon, though.

Thanks Vaughn. I'll have to experiment with the printing. This is pretty much a straight scan, but I forgot to mention that I used both an R25 filter and polarizer. I was hoping, and got, a good deep shadow with detail in the mountain on the upper right, but I wasn't sure what the sky would do with that filtration. Pretty much the same thing it does here in the summer - a middling grey.

Forgot to mention that this was shot with a B+W UV circular filter and a Tiffen Deep Yellow 15 4x4 filter (1-2/3stops.) The Yellow filter really brings out the detail. Initially I was somewhat concerned about leaving the UV on (overkill?) but left it on. The resulting exposure was f22-1/3 at 1/15 second on Delta 100.
