False Kiva

This image was taken during my last workshop in canyonlands Utah. This hike was not part of the workshop, so a couple of friends and I hiked to this spectacular site. It was tough to find this place, no trail head signs and the only way to find the path is to look for the cairns. This was the best image of the photoshoot.

Olympus E3
ISO 100
f/22 @ 1/5sec
Zuiko Digital ED f2.8 12-60mm SWD

Liked the way you've used the arching rock to frame the scene. The sun-burst looks great but wish it was'nt cornered so much (guess you cud'nt have helped it much while in field then). If only (again just wishful thinking) the circular parapet was'nt there, it would have made this lovely image even better.
Thanks for sharing Jonathan.

I really like the comp here Jonathan. I might be tempted to bump up the saturation of the rocks a bit to make them stand out against the blue sky but that is just my personal preference. Good job balancing the exposure.
