Very nice, John. I really like your comp and the light and colors are beautiful. I too think the bit of cloud movement works very nice here.

Great light. The contrast between the blue sky and the red hoodoos is striking.

Weird and wonderful! Beautiful long exposure, except I'm ambivalent about the movement in the clouds.

Wonderful tones to this image. The blue hues in the sky complement the adobe colored sandstone perfectly. The hoodoo in the smaller version has a halo from sharpening, but this is much less obvious in the larger version. Otherwise the processing looks great.
