I like #1 the best. The canyon exposure is outstanding with a perfect balance of highlights and shadows. The sky is also the perfect complimentary color to all the sandstone formations in the foreground. So many southwestern themed photos seem over-saturated in the red and orange spectrum. This photo illustrates how subtlety can often make the loudest statement. Well done!

Thank you, that was my favorite as well. I had to convince our friends to get to the spot early and I was glad I did because the best light was 30-40 minutes before sunset!

I like #1 because of the light on far cliffs and the layering of the buttes in the canyon. Very nice. #7, however, is the pick of the litter, IMHO. The light on the face of the cloud deck, the light on the faraway cliff, and the patch of snow in the right foreground with a little poke of stone in the left foreground make it an exceptional image. The light may not have been what you hoped for but you did a great job with what you were given and came away with some great shots.
Thank you and thanks for the reasons you liked them!

I think with a little lightening of the shadows in #4 and #9 would improve them. Number 8 I like as it is. Others are good too, but 4,8, and 9 are favorites.
Thanks for your reply and suggestions!

These are all lovely shots but I must say #8 is my favorite. The lighting is good and the detail is amazing.

I was super disappointed to not have the beautiful pink sunset with clouds. The first was 20 minutes or so before sunset and probably had the best light.
If any jump out at you, let me know. Enjoy!

These are all terrific captures. Too bad that the lighting didn't help you more, but you did fantastic with that limitation.

ALL of these are my favorite! They look GREAT on my 32" 1080P LED TV/PC monitor.
They, almost, make me want to revisit the GC.
