Wow! is right! Wes, I'd be tempted to crop out most of the sky. It would make losing the sun flare, but I think it might make a wow into a wow-est!

Thanks Jan and Flo. I will give it a try and see what happens, Flo. Thanks for the suggestion.

Nice one, Wes. Looks like the views from the lower spots were every bit as good as the upper sections that we climbed up to.

I think this would work better in black and white. And definitely crop out some of the sky (leave a little in the upper right corner).

This is called River Road (FM 170) and it's outside the park. There's another River Road inside Big Bend National Park, and that one is a backcountry unpaved road (we didn't go on it).


best regards,

Thanks, TJ. I will go and do a crop right now. It will be posted as a comparison to the original post. Flo mentioned that crop, too.

That is the way I like it too. Nice tones of blue and green.
Nice S curve of the river.

Thanks, Micheline. I am glad TJ said what he did because many of the times, I was stuck on the low ground so had to improvise for some of the shots.
