This image was created in the Upper Antelope Canyon. No enhancing filter, and no warming filter were used in this capture. It was shot 2/3 stop underexposed. I really like the tactile sandstone texture. This is an old slide scan so no exposure information is available. Hope you like my image. C and C welcome, I'm here to learn. - John

Going in close helped to create a effective composition though personally I probably would have placed the large crease in the middle more to the right.

Hey John,
I'm with Robert on this one ......would have preferred the main wave over to one side or the other.......but I feel the light is so nice and powerful here... that I am OK with it as presented. Another nice one.

from the thumbnail I thought this was the sunset shining on water! very interesting - I tend to agree on the placement of the big 'crest'. stunning textures!
