The Mittens of Monument Valley
This print is special to me. The image was the first panoramic I really ever attempted on my first photographic workshop with Natalie and Alain Briot. This image is facing east, but to the west at this time was one of the most spectacular sunsets I have ever witnessed. I never really captured the sunset adequately, but really enjoyed making this composition in the field and the light cooperated. I hope you enjoy the image of this very special location.
