I had planned my tour of Cliff Palace for late in the afternoon to take advantage of the evening light but a thunderstorm rolled in giving me diffuse light instead. So I decided to try something different and go with a sepia tone with heavy contrast and some vignetting to try for an "old time" look.

Couldn't be better, I think. If the light was not what you wanted, it worked out fantastically here. Absolutely professional.

Great job adjusting to the conditions. Really well done. Love the balance acheived with the processing.

Hey Phil, looks like a good candidate for a poster. I like what you did with the light.

Beautiful light on the cliff dwelling Phillip. Reminds me of the cliff dwellings in Mesa Verde.
