This is a great image with great colour, much like everyone else has already commented. So I'll critique your presentation: it's pretty bad. The browny-orange vignette you applied to the image is an odd colour and does anything but subtle. This photo also suffers from some rather extreme jpeg artifacts, something that you should be screening for before upload. What's the point of nice photo equipment if you turn the image into mush when displaying it?

I like the picture very much Bob.Mischivo sounds like an angry person with many pent up issues but that's just my opinion.I've seen some of his photos posted and he should be the last person to critique anyone like yourself with talent.--charliezap

That is one wonderful image Bob, nice 3D effect. If you have room left, print it and hang it. Thanks for posting it.

What a view! Those colors are amazing. It's almost hard for me to believe they exist in nature! Really fantastic shot, Bob!
thanks Lori, the colors seem to change with every hour here at the canyon. Next year we may go to the North Rim for a little different view of this wonder of the world.

Superb, one I could see on my wall. Looks like one of those turn of the century plein air paintings. Great color, and I really like what you did with the other side of the canyon.
thanks so much for the kind words and thoughts, I am pleased to get the results without going overboard. Bob

That haze really adds to depth of the image. Well taken and well kept.
You know you're right Bruce, I thought the haze would be a negative, but it actually worked in my favor this time. I appreciate you taking the time to view and comment. Bob

That is an epic picture Bob! You need to find a way to print and hang that one. (might be kind of hard to hang in the RV though )
thanks CJ and you're right about the wall space, sort of works in my favor at times or at least a good excuse. take care....
