Wow! I love the look of the dark clouds over that landscape. Beautiful photo, Lamar!

Wayne, DonnaT - thanks for looking and commenting!

Such an exciting scene! Beautiful area, and you did a great job with your phone camera. Wonderful landscape! Very dramatic skies.

I might be tempted to crop the lower part of the frame, just up to where the field stops and the treeline starts. But I see that would also be the end of your square format, which is very nice, too. Just a thought.

Thanks, Terri! That's a good suggestion, but I thought it was interesting that some of the Navajo still live and farm in the canyon during the summer. But composition-wise, I agree with you

This is really dramatic! Love that dark sky and I find the contrast between the green foreground and the bare rock really interesting.

Cool!! I didn't know that - it's only adds to the beauty of the area.

A stunning photo, Lamar! Will you paint this?

 

[laika]

Thanks, Triduana, snoball, KreativeK, and Terri!

Will you paint this?

I have my hands full right now - only time for scribbling lately - but I'll probably attempt to paint it at some point
