Where is ITV??

Its on the way to Monument Valley coming from Kayenta.

Very nice. I am always wondering what the mountain used to look like. I like to play with the sky saturation too, but it might be a little much here. I am thinking it doesn't compliment the deep reds you have in there, but that is just me.

Another great post Jere!

I'm not a fan of centered composition like this but it does work here. I would like to see you try an off-centered composition at some point. You might like it!

I think the colors are great. When i first went here, it is almost disorienting because the colors don't belong where they are! There is one area where the sand is so bright orange that you feel like you are in live action CGI.

Now, here's the problem with that. Before i moved to the southwest, i thought the artists there were taking drugs and creating alternative art. Then you get there and the sunsets are rediculous and there are scenes like this one. So, as a southwest US artist, you have to decide if you want to do true color work or mute it down so people don't find it jarring. Me? I'd leave it just the way it is!

Well done!
