    You sure found some interesting places to shoot on your vacation, Steve. I'll have to add this place to my bucket list. I'm digging the light in all of these.

    Very nice work. Good subject selection and good composition.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thanks for the comments. I was fascinated by this place when I started to see pictures from other people. The formations look huge, but once you get there, you'll see that it's actually pretty small. I was lucky that our drive from the previous stop got us there a little before sunset. Then I dragged myself out of a comfortable bed to make it for sunrise the next morning.

    I like these. I'm glad you resisted the temptation to jazz them up during processing. The composition in the second is particularly good.

    Thanks for the comments. Yes, the easiest post-processing is on shots that come from the golden hours. Both sunset & sunrise were extremely pleasant times there.
