Dramatic light - Photographing remote wilderness part 2

Light is what makes a great photograph. These were taken on our recent 24 day backpack on rarely visited lands on the Navajo Nation. The first photo was taken on the 3rd night. The only time we were ever near a trail, we were in a place called Surprise Valley. The second photo was taken on rugged Nasja Mesa after our second of three storms ( the 3rd storm would pin us in our tents for 36 hours!- very rare for the desert). The 3rd ( which I've already posted once) was on the first night of the trip. More coming soon!

"Light is what makes a great photograph."
Well, there's the subject, too.
Nice work, by the way.

These were shot on a nikon D750 with a 24-120 f4 nikon lens. All were handheld ( I'm too old-65- to be carrying a tripod on a 24 day backpacking trip) and processed minimally on Lightroom. Just switched to digital 2 years ago. Before my work was shot on slide film on either a Nikon FM2 (35mm) or a Mamiya 7 ( (6x7). You can see more of my wilderness photography work on harveyhalpern.com

Thank you. Your excellent website is filled with amazing and varied photos, all related to your "Endangered Canyons of Utah."
Are you using a filter to get the sky so blue and contrasted with the subject?

Maximum contrast gives "life" to each photo. Love the brightness of the colors. Thanks! More, please. . .
