Comment by Imagineer:
Great lead-ins - nice scene & foreground. Sky looks a little 'dirty' but the lighting and comp make up for it. Good one.

Thanks for the comments, all who did so! This was a fun challenge, and I applaud the winners; I thought Steve's (stdavidson) photo of the saguaro landscape was magnificent--certainly one of my favorites of the challenge. I'm not surprised it won and I'm really happy that it did.

As for processing, the processing I did is almost invisible. Just a greater clarity of texture on the rocks, and some energy spent in getting details and many shades of gray.

Thanks again!

Perspective dominates and captured my heart. Between the long shadow lines, bright white rock forground and all beneath the vast cloud cover...love the framing. Love the photo. Great gosh 8 and thanks.

Comment by Kavey:
Quite haunting. I wonder if it would have been better as a duotoned black and white or just with a touch of the saturation taken out of the sky?
