Beautiful light. As already mentioned, the depth here is wonderful despite the hazy conditions. I might consider a crop off the top to remove the blue.

Very nice light, Donald. Sky seems a bit grayed down.

Beautiful light and color. The haze really accentuates the sense of distance. Nicely done.

A beautiful scene, but the pollution from that coal fired power plant near Page has done a number to the skies.

You probably should have taken that into consideration when composing the shot, sorry to say.
