I've been to Moab a number of times, but last week was the first time I visited Dead Horse Point. Here is a small gallery of sunset shots.

C&C appreciated. Thanks for looking...

They're all very nice. I like the sky in this shot.

You got a very nice sky during your visit, that's for sure. The 50/50 split between the sky and landscape isn't working too well for me here though. Other suggestions here would include an overall contrast boost and a slight clockwise rotation to fix the horizon which seems to be tilted to the left. Like Chris, I'm digging the Sunset #2 image the best in your collection.

Although the sky is nice, the foreground is pretty murky here.
The best light at DHP occurs at sunrise.
Having said that, your choice of zooming in at Sunset #2 was a good move.
That one is also my favorite of your series.
