Excellent compositions! I have been there a couple times and shot lots of photos. There seems to be more "orange" coloration than meets the natural eye. I realize the golden hour will attenuate some of those colors but these seem a bit more processed than that


I appreciate your encouraging comments. I think that the thunderstorms from the day before and the days we were there probably helped bring out the darker colors. Also, in some shots, you can see a dramatic variation in the colors of the formations. My problem is that "grey" card shots taken at the beginning of the drive, with the setting sun, may not yield a good color balance throughout the set. Also, sharpening and denoise may affect the colors.

Our drive along the Bryce Parkway took us the full 18 miles out to the end at Rainbow and Yovimpa Points. This was almost 8:00pm. Ordinarily this would still be enough light for good shots, but the clarity and color of each shot depended mainly on the cloud movement between us and the setting sun behind us. Each shot is labeled to show the overlook from which the shot was taken. The background of the shot gives you an idea the direction of the shot.

At the end, the thunderstorm was almost on us and you can see clouds on the land in some of the Rainbow Point shots.

Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
