		<description>Thanks for the comments!

Gary - I'll share the location, but you will then need to come down the road another hour to Zion and buy me a beer.  I'm pretty cheap!

Thanks Craig, and thanks for the recommendations!  The whole time we were there we kept saying, "I can't believe we haven't visited this spot yet!"

Carl, I agree, there probably is too much yellow in the sky.  I think that was due to the correction made by the auto white balance setting since I was shooting in dark shade.  If I warm a photo after the fact, I always remove the warm cast from the sky.  The problem with auto white balance is the entire image is effected, even that area in the sun.  When I actually adjust this image, I might convert with a cooler setting like daytime, and then apply a warming filter only to the shaded area - I think this would keep the sky a truer blue.  By the way, you were correct, I didn't use a polarizer.

I agree Richard, I was very surprised to find any green or flowers!

		<description>Hey Ron,

I'm gunna ask you a little question here, because this image is a goood example of something that bothers me about digital images. The sky's a funky a color. I see this cast a LOT on digital stuff, especially my own. There's too much yellow or something in it. I find it happens particularly when I use a polariser, but even sometimes when I don't. Honestly, I rarely see this on your images, and I was gunna ask what kind of polariser you use, because I thought it might make a difference - but I'm thinking you didn't use one here anyway, so there goes that theory. What say you?

Cheers

		<description>Hey Ron and Janine!
I see you made it to Valley of Fire. This is a fantastic shot. A one of a kind. What contrast between the soft flowers (and light) and the harsh peak. Great job!

		<description>Honestly, Ron, I wouldn't bother going back there. I think it's time to just send me the GPS Coordinates, and move on....
