Ok,theres no zebras. Now that you're here, this is one that didn't make the cut for my plateau work (couldn't crack the top 25). Still, I kinda like it.....

I can see why you like it. Very unique patterns in the sandstone.
It would be nice if the branches were not intruding on the right but that's minor.
If THIS didn't make the cut, I need to see the top 25!!!

George...I wish I have some of your " didn't make the cut" kind of photos in my collection!!! This is very well thought out image...beautiful image!! Great lines leading to the rocks... I really like your work and style... are the images on your website large format shot? or digital? regards, Rajeev.
Rajeev, thanks for the kind words. I shot 45 and 67 for 10 years before going digital 2 1/2 years ago or so. Haven't picked up a film camera since......do they still make film?
George,
I don't like the bush in the middle right, but I also see how you can not avoid it. I think it would have been too tight to the right if you had cropped it. Great lead in lines to the rocks laying in the ravine.

It's a solid image, George. Plenty of detail interest, and the rocks give it something of a whimsical feel as they pile out of (or into?) the opening. The comp emphasizes that nicely.
