Big Bend-Santa Elena Canyon
I was in Big Bend last month and I hit the must see location-Santa Elena Canyon. Incredible place to see a sunrise as first light hits the canyon walls.

See more from this trip on my Large Format Blog

Great series, Darren. All are great but I particulary like the night shot of the pictographs.

Awesome series, I really like the Sotol Vista at sunset.There all really beatiful though. Youre making me want to get a large format camera :biggrin:

Wow, great stuff, Darren! I really like the Sotol Vista shot, and the layering in #3. :toast:

Thanks Bill! One of my favorite parks. I tell every landscape photographer to visit it.

Add another "Wow" on the Sotol Vista shot. The whole series is nice but that one, man that's some spectacular light. :smile:
