Recently took a trip down to southern Utah and northern Arizona and stayed a couple of days at the Wauweap RV park. It had been cloudy and rainy all day until sunset when the clouds opened up and gave us an incredible view. This was the view we had while sitting under the awning enjoying a very cold beer.

Hope you enjoy, and as always, all comments are appreciated.

Very nice! I do find the hard shadow to the right a little distracting. If you can selectively raise that a little bit to soften it, and clone out the branch in the corner those would make it just a bit nicer/cleaner. Is this a crop at all? or the full scene?

Thank you for taking the time to comment. I like the shadow in the scene. . .to me it adds a bit more depth, but I will look at softening it a bit. And it is a full scene.

I have no problem with the shadow, and didn't even notice the branch until Eric pointed it out, I see where he's coming from, it just isn't a distraction for me. Nice shot all around. I expect to stay at Wauweap in a few weeks, never tire of that region.

Thanks Stan! I agree with you about Wauweap. . .we try to take the motorhome down there at least in the early spring, and then again in the fall. The campsites are nicely laid out where all spots get a nice view. Enjoy your stay there

Great shot. I rarely get photogenic skies when I'm up there. Nice to see someone did... ;-)a
