Morning arrives at Buck's Canyon

[Roman Kurywczak]

Taken In Canyonlands NP during my last tour there in April. This is quite a view from this little overlook.....with about a 1000' drop. I have always tried over the years to capture the grandeur of this vista......closest I've come so far.
Canon 1D Mark lll withe the 17-40mm lens at 17mm for 1 sec. at f22 and ISO 100 all tripod mounted with 2 Singh Ray GND filters stacked and HH in front of lens.
Saved around 56 quality to fit.

you were blessed with one heck of a sunrise here. very nice job!! the colors and cloud masses are very dramatic!

[Dave Mills]

Roman, Not an easy place to get a comp that works well due to it's vastness. You got a great sunrise which is the dominant factor and the terrain is adding to it's interest. Very well handled technically...

Very nice sunrise and cloud patterns. That could really make or destroy your image. Lots of detail in the land also, well done.

Thanks all! Yes Artie.....this is in the "Islands in the Sky" district of Canyonlands NP......30 miles or so outside of Moab, Utah.
