Grand Canyon Sunset Muted

    Grand Canyon, June 2010

    Canon 40D, Tamron telephoto, 73mm, ISO 400, f/14.0, 1/640, AWB.

    This is a different crop from the same original as Grand Blue; when I shot the poto, I was most taken by the silhouettes of the people and trees against the interestingly lit sky. It wasn't until I got home that I realized what I treasure I had in the blues in the right-side background (hence, the Grand Blue crop). This version crops some from the top and bottom to get rid of some of the monolithic black cliff and to emphasis the silhouettes. I don't like it nearly as much as the other crop.
