It's an amazing image, so many thoughts come to mind while viewing this. In this light it could be an artifact from a long lost race....! Quality work Ron.

Wow ... this is a great shot! I like the way the arch contrasts with the beautiful colored sky! It's like a stairway to heaven ... ;) You should hang this on your wall and enjoy this view every day!

Both are beautiful shots. I love the soft pastel color of the light here.
The other one has a more contemporary feel and grander scale.

excellent perspective and vivid colors. Is this HDR?
5 Aug 2008 11:39pm
@Jrask: It is, Josh. I've done HDRs before and done "tone mapping" ... with this one I used the "exposure blending" mode. I especially like the way it brought out the shading on the right leg of the arch. I noticed that the f/stop in the exif data is 11.3 ... I wondered if anyone would notice that. Thanks for your visit and feedback, Josh ... I hope alls well with your busy life at seminary. ron

A nice take on the arch. Might have to try this HDR thing out for myself!

great HDR work here! even before that - great point of view on the arch and composition... the HDR really brings out great detail and the way the arch stands against the sky is fantastic...

Hey Ron, I think drove past your home town of Saint Louis on my way to Iowa. I'm sorry to say that I didn't get a chance to see the Arch but I'm happy to see that you have a beautiful capture here. =D
