Mesa Arch

second try.
I composed the image, got a finger volunteered, climbed on top of the arch, and instructed the finger to gently push the button.

Hi Steve,
Been up there myself a few times. Think you should crop about half way between the top and yourself to make a pano. On my monitor......looks like a little bit of a cyan cast.

Love the warm glow on the rocks Steve nicely complimenting the cool cyan tones.
Agree with Roman re cropping a little off the fairly bland sky.

I like the fish-eye look and nice self-portrait. Agree with the cyan cast.

Gives a nice sense of size to the arch - though I'm sure you'll probably never see me up there.

This looks surprisingly similar to a shot of mine from a few years ago, even to the extended arms and choice of focal length. Hmmm. As I remember from our conversation you are a member of the Adventurer's Club so I'm not surprised to see you up there in spite of a little snow and ice and what must have been pretty slippery footing!

I agree with the other comments, the blue cast is strong but that can be altered in the RAW easily. You've been posting some nice images lately, you need to get them on a portfolio website sometime.
