Photo from the Left Fork of North Creek!

Yep, I was one of the other 8,000,000 photographers to be in Zion this Fall.

This shot is a little before you get to the Arch Angel Falls. I liked the way the two portions of the stream came together in this more intimate setting. Two exposure blend. C&C welcome!

Canon 5D II, 16-35mm @ 20m, f/18 for 3.2 sec and 2.0 sec, ISO 200

I was just processing my version of this scene last night as one of 8,000,000 to visit this fall. Nice image Phillip, you were here probably 2-3 weeks after me given all the leaves on the ground.

This is a beauty Phillip! Lots to look at, so many rich and vibrant colors. The processing looks incredibly well done.

Nice light, wonderful color, and a really good comp. I see you were already at iso 200 so I guess you couldn't work with faster shutter speeds and kept your noise down at the same time, so your limitations there kept you from being able to choose a faster shutter speed, which is all I think I would have preferred here.

I never tire of seeing images from this area. Well done in all respects, Phillip.

Super comp. Phillip. Everything is there, super lines and structure, color, technical aspect. Very fine work!

Well, there may have been 8,000,000 of us there this fall (yes, me too), but few came away with anything this good. Exceptional and unique image of the area. Congrats.

A beautiful image like this should never be titled "Yet Another . . . ." Perhaps something more along the lines of "8,000,000 Other Photographers Went Here This Fall But None of Them Got This Lovely Shot." I think that sounds more like it.

Great shot Phillip, very dynamic! Nothing I don't like. I agree with Shane, great procesing here!

Thats a tremendous comp. I walked right past this with the other 8,000,000 folks and now I'm kicking myself!
