Very nice indeed.

Thanks Don. I must say this is one of my best shot from the Arches National Park area

I also like that you shot it with the 105mm lens (presumably the macro ?), as over on the Open forum a few days ago people were arguing whether one should use a 12mm or a 14mm lens for landscapes.

You are right Don it was shot with the 105 mms IS macro lens. I have seen lots of comments about ultra- wide lenses for landscape shooting, but my favorite lens when using my Leicaflex years ago was a 90 mms for landscape shots😎

If a wide angle lens was used for this shot, the Towers and the background mountains would have been rendered too small and the impact lost, IMHO😎

Exactly.
