Nice soft light on the tufa. There seems to be a few dust spots in the sky, so there's still some cloning work to do on this one.

This is a pretty cool shot Jackson. I like the shutter speed selection and the effect on water.

Hey Jackson, Really nice shot. The quality of the light makes this feel almost three-dimensional. Great time of day to be there, I am sure. I agree that some dust clean up is in order. I've never been here, and would love to see something a little wider if you have it. Great shot.

Awesome light but it's too tight of a crop on the edges for me.... if you frame this, you will loose even more..... did you get a wider view of these ??

Thanks for the comments and suggestions everyone.
John- Some of the other comps I have are a bit wider. However this particular comp was the best I could from the vantage point I was at.

Very nice photo Jackson. I like the soft pastel colors. Great use of the slow shutter.
