Hi Ian,
I did about the same thing this summer, covering California, Nevada, Utah and (a very small part of) Colorado in little over 3 weeks. I made a similar trip 4 years ago (although we went further north back then, to see Yellowstone) and I'm sure I'll return again - there's just so much to see. Even if you do a lot of research before you start, there's no way you're going to be able to see more than a tiny bit of the beauty that the South-West US has to offer.

This shot takes my breath away Arjan, back in
1981 my family and I toured around California,
Nevada and Arizona by car for nearly 4 weeks,
I am kicking myself I never did enough research
on the trip as obviously we missed a lot of great
scenery over there, not that I was into photography at that
time. Anyway what a great image.
Regards Ian
Brisbane, Australia

I am a geologist and a weather forecaster, so your shot appealed to me on both counts!
If you'r reworking the image, maybe clone out the obstruction in the bottom-centre - or am I being TOO fussy!

Good composition, Arjan, to include both the fantastic scenery of the cliffs and river, as well as the approaching storm.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for your comments! I immediately agree with you about the right hand side of the river, however I only noticed this after I returned home. I have about 20 of these shots, and somehow I managed to miss that side of the river on all of them. Shame on me. The horizon - now that you mention it - yes, you'ew definitely right on that too.
I have some underexposed shots of the sky that I could try to overlay with this one, I'll post a new version if I ever succeed in doing that.
A little secret - this photo is already two photos stitched together (vertically). The lens is fantastic indeed, but wasn't quite wide enough on my D60.
Thanks again, Arjan

Hi Arjan
Great dramatic shot, but it could be improved a bit if you:
1. do not clip the river on the RHS
2. the horizon looks a little crooked
3. the sky is as dramatic as the canyon, but it is overexposed and there is not enough of it.
You used a great lens (I have one!), so maybe you could have made a panorama of several portrait shots and stitched them together?
Great effort anyway - congratulations.. Nick

Hi Philip,
Thanks for the kind words! I only visited Weeping Rock and I hiked the Angel's Landing trail, and after that, I didn't have any more time to visit the Narrows. Judging by the photos I've seen that must be a spectacular hike though, so It'll be the first thing I'll do if I visit Zion again. It's a beautiful park.

wonderful capture of zion, did you get the chance to hike into the narrows? i have a picture in my gallery from there, also a gallery owner which has gained much recongnition has a gallery there Micheal Fattali a wonderful landscape photographer, and now very well known, the light that he captures is amazing, he does a lot of canyoneering, and finds wonderful spots to shoot... great image of zion though, i cant wait to go back..

Hi Arjan, Nice 60's look over this image. Not only the car, but also the toning and fading border create a very timelss image. I agree with Kevin about the people in the bakcground, but cloning would be a better option I think. Good shot,
Cheers,
Hugo

Hi Arjan, I think the composition is wel lbalanced, but there are two things that I find a bit distracting. First of all, the scene is too cluttered. Playing with the DOF would and focusing on the painting would've resulted in the same colourful atmosphere, but would also "tune down" this image a bit. Besides, I think that could also increase the tension. Secondly, it looks like the photo is a tad over saturised. Other than that a refreshing shot. Not a usual scene, which makes it nice to look at.
Cheers,
Hugo

Love the angle of this shot, as you included the people in the car with the roof of the car. I would just crop out the people in the background. Excellent work.
