Caught sunrise at the Totem Pole and Yei B' Chei formation in Monument Valley, which is a sacred site for Navajo ceremonies. Managed to catch the sunburst as a bonus. No clouds, but sometimes you just don't need 'em...

The sunburst is great. Nice shot.

The gradient in the sky is a sick combination with the silhouette.

All natural effects. No filters, no software gradients needed...just basic PP with levels, capture and output sharpen, and that was about it. Easy when you're just dealing with a silhouette... ;)

The small rock formation on the far right is refereed to by the Navajo as the "George Washington rock"...
