Late Afternoon at Hunt’s Mesa. Captured just before sunset, this view of Monument Valley is widely regarded as one of the most sublime vistas in the Southwest - but it’s very hard to get there, and requires a Navajo back country guide. For my composition, Mother Nature kindly provided some nice, puffy clouds to complement her glorious landscape.

Tech info: Nikon D850 camera with Nikon 28-300mm lens at 58mm, 1/160 sec. at f/11, ISO 500.
