Overwhelmed + repost

This was my first visit to Zion national park, and to the virgin river or the Narrows. I was truly awe stricken by the majestic nature to Zion National Park. I loved my hike through the narrows, and I can't wait to get back out that way. This was truly one of the most spiritual places I have ever visited in my life.

Please leave any comments you have. I appreciate all feed back.

Yep, one of my favorite hikes in this continent! Nice look at it too, Ryan. This gives a good sense of the grandeur. I'm not totally sure about the cyan in the water, but otherwise it looks great.

This is very nice, Ryan! A very cool view for sure. Maybe just a bit to cyan in the water but I have never been there. Anyways I like the way it looks and those rock walls are impressive.

Beautiful scene with nice colors and textures Ryan. I agree with the others about the cyan in the water. Otherwise a very nice image. Great job.

I love the colors along with the depth of this beautiful scene, Ryan. This is really cool looking the way the walls seem to merge into one in the BG.

This image conveys the narrowness and the verticality of this place better than any image I can remember from here. Since I have never been here, thank you for that. Now, I want to go there even more!

thanks for the feedback, and I was definitely a bit too heavy on the cyan in the water.

here is a re-post of less cyan

The repost is really nice, but I don't mind amped photo's like the OP either as long as it is not garish and yours was not.
Part of the artistic process and fine with me.
You captured one of the most beautiful places on the planet in a nice way.
