Hello everyone. This is my first post here so I decided to share one of my favorites from earlier this year. Take at Deadhorse point, Utah during a clearing late spring storm.

Welcome to the forum, Klaus. I've been enjoying your sunrises on the FM forum.
I really like the composition and mood that you've captured here. Certainly a different take on the old icon.

Welcome!
Very dramatic and unique composition. Love the b&w presentation!
A little contrast enhancement would go a long way, IMO.

This is one of the cooler photos I've seen from DH Point. Love the clearing clouds in the canyon. Nice work!

This is really awesome Klaus. I love the anchor in the right lower corner with the bush. Great composition on a perfect day for it. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Wow, what a great first post. A different take on an iconic location for sure. Welcome to the forum!

Thank you all so very much.

I agree with John that a little more contrast would be nice. It's a great shot and one of the more interesting that I've seen from Dead Horse Point.

That's a very nice image. B&W really does lend itself to winter storms.
