The first mormon settlers, who reached this place, were so awestruck with beauty and majestic greatness of the scenery, that they called it "New Zion", the place where the God lives.
Taken in Zion National Park, Utah.

As my first comment on this site, I must say: excellent contrast and mix of values (among other things)! Not only a gorgeous landscape, but very well captured!
this exposure is amazing! on an aside: i've been all over the west and i love it; everything is amazing, especially throughout the 150-or-so miles of freeway near zion np, moab, arches, grand staircase, canyonlands, et al. anyway, i think you should consider cropping more of the sky to bring the mountains up to the top 2/3--it'll draw more attention to the finer rock features as well as the plants down near the bottom. as-is it tends to pull my eyes up to the open space in the sky. cheers.
or maybe (if you're trying to preserve the 1:1 and assuming you have more stuff below the bottom of this framing in the original exposure) you could just move the frame down on the land... /m
BTW, if you press on the "link" from the mountain-lovers display of this picture it "links" you to another image, so I had to look thoroughly for your picture in order to it

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
