this is one of our favorite places to visit, with the clouds coming in and passing it changes the color of the sandstone. One minute it is drab and the next the reds come out and shine.

I would reduce the post processing a bit though.
Originally posted by wtlwdwgn I agree. It looks a bit HDRish to me. Otherwise a classic MV shot. It'll look great on a wall.
I do the majority of my editing in camera and preset the camera filters. The saturation was set high and I did add a bit of HDR in editing in camera for the effect. I toned it back a bit and posted the image as corrected. Thanks for the constructive criticism. No walls left in the motorhome, so I'll just have to save this once we get off the road.

Originally posted by Dewman I rather like the effect of the heavy-handed PP. It imparts a very 3-D effect. The skinny horse looks like it could literally walk out of the picture. And, the composition is great. Quadrant subject placement at it's finest!

thanks so much for the kind review, I'll tell you I was excited when the pony came in frame and I was looking for a special photo and am very pleased with the results on this one. I checked the camera that I did get a photo, there have been times when I have messed up a great shot just by not paying attention.
