Mesa Arch at Canyonlands NP

1) sunburst

2) through the arch

I got there about 45 min before sunrise in the dead of winter...parking lot is already full. Already 15 people lined in the prime spots haha! I had to squeeze in at the end.

Yeeks! How many people might be there in better weather?

I prefer the second image. That orange is overwhelming the image though. Any way you can dim it down in HSL using Saturation and Luminance?

Nice set! I prefer the image with Washer Woman in the background. No rhyme or reason for the amount of people on a given day. I've been there in the winter on a day like this with all the people, and a mid week day right after Easter jeep week with only a couple other photographers.

Wonderful Daniel! It is a mad house and you found a way to still get the shots!

David I may do that. Honestly, I have never that kind of orange..it's almost "blown out" but it was like that to begin with.

Thanks for commenting Jerry.

Thanks for commenting Taz..you are really taking it to another level btw. I am so proud!

You took this in RAW, I hope? Then it is probably possible.
