Towers of the Virgin
It's "cliche" for a reason. It was my first visit to Zion, and sort of felt that grabbing this shot is mandatory, at least once. Witnessing sunrise here did not disappoint.

Sweet. One of my favorite icon scenes. Nicely done, Ryan.

Nicely captured Ryan, very strong and majestic image.

Great light for your icon shot, Ryan! I hope to get some of my own from Zion in the not too distant future. Good going.

Fascinating to compare this with your newer post Ryan. The difference in dimension between the two is striking; the newer one has much more depth to my eye. This is very nice, with great color, but I think I would have liked it a lot better if I hadn't seen the other photo first. :wink:

This is excellent Ryan. Everything works together very well. The sunlight shinning on the rocks is what makes this one special IMO.
