Pavilion and Little Bear Arches

Valley of Fire State Park, Clark County, NV view map

Pavilion Arch is the very intricate one in the middle. I'm not sure of the name of the arch on the upper left.
I couldn't decide if I liked the full color or b&w versions of this, so I did a slight blend of the color into the b&w.

Works well with this hint of colors as it brings out the details well without being over saturated. "V"

Your color blending works well under that ominous looking sky Sam.

It's a masterpiece! I think this was a great approach for this considering the light and everything.~BV~

The unusual coloured rock against the unusual blend of the b&w sky is a fascinating result!
