Taken in Monument Valley, Utah, USA. Also taken in July 2005 from the Goulding Logde. It was around 6 'o clock in the morning... Hope you like it, it's amazing to see :)
It’s certainly a great time to be out there. I can’t help feeling that if it were taken a few minutes earlier you might have avoided those flares. Despite that it’s a commendable photo and a wonderful view.
As a rule I would agree with the above comments. I think you made a nice capture nonetheless. I thought to myself when I saw this that it's looking cool enough to excuse those flares.
Love the way that sun hits me square in the face. I ought to have this photo up and loaded on the monitor for when I fall out of bed in the morning. Then I can turn the computer on and BAM...sunrise! Very well executed...not an easy shot either.
