A photo from our hike to The Wave in Arizona. This is on the hike, not in the Wave itself. I saw the old tree, the rocks and clouds and said, "Oh yes!"

Outstanding Image James. Must be viewed FULL SCREEN MODE to appreciate. Hard to believe it's only a Single Image capture and process. Thanks for sharing.

@digicam Thanks. I saw this composition on our hike back to the trailhead. Originally, I processed it in color. Then, I converted it to B&W. Finally, I took the color version into Photomatix and converted it again to B&W. This last work came out the best.

@javh Love it!! I saw this and instantly remember this composition. I made it out to the Wave about April 4 2014. I got lucky at the BLM in Kanab. I had no plan of making it but stopped by to get some maps of the area, saw the line to sign up, and was picked on the first draw. I would really like to go back being a little better at composing things but I don't think I'd get that lucky. Great shot!!!

i was lucky also as my friend won a spot and he asked me to go! His regular shooting buddy couldn’t make it, so I was the lucky backup.
