You and far Southeastern Utah are attached at the hip. Every photograph you take there is just magical. The warmth in the foreground is very powerful in this image. But equally compelling is the subtle distant cliff colors, which match the warm foreground, and lead your eye right through the image. A real show stopper!
There is something about that part of the country that ‘does it’ for me. It’s not just the scenery, but it’s also an intangible quality, something that you have to experience first-hand.
