Light at the end of a tunnel

Picture from Bryce Canyon NP, Utah this morning. Navajo Loop Trail. Steep, snowy, icy but what fun. Mother nature at her finest. So many colors so few pixels.

I walked around that corner once and was almost run over by a jack rabbit. I hadn't yet recovered my breath when I was almost run over by a coyote. I had to sit down for a moment, I was laughing so hard.

Gives a great sense of scale, but I'm afraid it looks very soft.

Hi,
I presume HDR is Your bag full of colours
I hope You will be lucky to find it.

PS:In my opinion the greatness,in photography,is vertical or horizontal one but rectangular in both cases.

I thought the idea was good but did not know how to present it. Nothing done to it, just a crop. Any ideas to handle this type of situation?

[Terry Tedor]

IMHO, it's up to you to decide what you wanted to convey to the viewer. If it were mine, I'd would look at a more vertical crop/composition, as the "man dwarfed by nature" theme could be exploited to your benefit by adding to the scale and feeling of the shot. I personnally don't have any issue with the eposure or color, but I'm just a rank amateur. I didn't think it was HDR, is it? My only issue was as mentioned above - it looks a little soft to me.

Here is a different crop. More vertical now the way it should have been.

I think this crop is much better. It emphasizes the height and "narrowness" of the pathway and has less dark area in the bottom corners. I might be tempted to crop off just a little off the bottom.... then again, maybe not
