I don’t know much about Forrest Gump (never saw the movie--I don’t go to anything the critics say you “have to see”), but the photo is excellent.
Nice work with the camera!

As you're coming in from the north.

Returned home last evening from a swing through southeastern Utah, southwest Colorado and Monument northeast Arizona. We visited Canyon of the Ancients, Mesa Verde, Shiprock, Valley of the Gods and Monument valley...it was a beautiful trip! There was snow on the ground, or snowing, everywhere and it was hard to get above 30*'s. It was a beautiful trip! This is a shot as we were leaving Monument Valley yesterday morning on our way home. I find the winter better light better than summer light, for photography.

In the movie Forrest Gump, this is the place where he stopped running.

An iconic shot for sure. Nice work.

It’s a great photograph. But it’s more than that. It is a picture of a magnificent, lonely vista in a country that has so many iconic views. Beautiful!

Thanks John...I know what you mean about movies and I agree, however, Gump was a good movie and a great performance by Tom Hanks. If you get a chance to see it, don't pass on it.

And that is one of my favorite views. I stop at the top of that rise every time I drive that road! Nicely done.
