Love the golden glow on the sandstone face and the cooler tones around its base. Very nice image

I really like your handling of this exposure. And, it doesn't look oversaturated on my old monitor on IE. Wonderful light on the spires, and the bluebird sky is a nice complement to the orange.

Beautiful warm light on the buttes set off so nicely by the cool colors in the shadows.

This is very nice. A wonderful scene and I like the glow from the setting sun. Looks just like it is straight out of a western movie. It is very nice to explore the scene in the large version. Nice work Wick.

On IE, I get a little more contrast than seen with FF. I like the little added contrast for this image.
