Golden Canyon, Death Valley, California

These are a couple of photos from a trip almost three years ago.  Both are heavily cropped.  The top of the crops are constrained by my intent of not showing the sky at all to create more of an enclosed feeling.

Very pleasant and realistic color processing.  I'll have to try a top hat the next time I visit the Mojave Desert.

The diagonal structure of the folded stone makes the picture, and the light has just the right direction to give accent to the figures

awesome shots, when I see pics like that, I think of the moment that occurred, talk about an Earthquake...................... WHEW!

I prefer the first, it has more of 3D quality.

Thank you pluton, Frank, Darrell, and Anthony.  I was walking back down the canyon to my vehicle when I noticed that this particular spot provided a very nice shot as people passed by.
