[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Arches National Park is a very special place. I arrived at Arches during a point in my photography road trip when I was beginning to get a little weary due to the Utah summer heat. Yet, the minute I stepped foot into this amazing park, the heat was forgotten.
This classic scene of Window arch has probably been photographed a million times over. However, like many locations on my trip, it was my first time seeing it. So it was new to me! This scene is best shot in the morning as the sun rises and the arches light up with color.

Mike, I really like what you have done here. The composition is exquisite, and it is new to me too! I like how this gives the viewer a feeling of either looking at an array of arches, or looking through a window. You have good details in both the fore, mid and backgrounds. Simply put I like this shot!
Cheers,
Dianne

BRAVO , MAGNIFICA IMAGEN, FELICIDADES

What a special place and a great capture Mike.
A classic view that is hard to resist.
I know where you were exactly too.
I have virtually the same shot, a little earlier in the day. Will try and post it soon.
Well done.

Your book of the best spots served you well here. Quality of the image is spot on. Clear and sharp front to back. And theen there is the composition - WOW. When we were there it was hard to avoid the people - you were in luck in that regard.

Hi Mike,
Spectecular landscape, very nice composition with this whole. The clear blue sky is perfect as background, it has a strong contrast to the rocks. The warm colours are very nice, creative shot in a wonderful environment. Nowhere a blur, noise, OE... Amazingly clear image, congratulations! TFS.
Best regards,
Kristof

I can imagine the awe at seeing a formation like this. You've captured it very well - fantastic use of the morning light, nice through-the-arch view with an excellent deep field of focus.
