nice pictures.

the last one is superb
what is grandcanyon156?

You have some very nice shots, but perhaps a little flat. Some more saturation and contrast might make them "pop".

Ya, I took over 200 pictures on this trip to the South Rim, and #156 is my favorite. It is one of a series taken inside the Watchtower at Desert View. I've got the high rez version as my desktop wallpaper.

I was sort of going for a more natural look. I did boost contrast & saturation some, but I didn't want to go overboard. Despite using uv + polarizer filters the haze in the canyon was bad. They certainly do look flatter on the web then in PS, probably the colorspace.
