Delicate Arch II

By TonyA
The three mile round trip hike to Delicate arch is outstanding. You must ascend a rather steep slick rock slope. Near the end of the trail there you find Frame Arch, a natural rock window provides you with an impressive first peek of Delicate Arch.

One of the people in our group had a Hasselblad H2D with a Phase On 39 million pixel back. I had the opportunity of taking two images of which this is one of them. When viewed at 100% the detail is just outstanding.

IF POSSIBLE PLEASE VIEW LARGE!!!.

A beautiful shot Antonio, the view and clarity is such that you can see forever as they say. The detail is fantastic, even in the shadow areas. Great work.

Very nice colours and composition - stunning scenery. Seems to be some odd (cloning?) cloud formation top right of the sky in the large version though.

Your captures are bringing back so many memories. I remember waiting for around 30min to get a shot of this myself with no people in the way. Absolutely superb composition and tones.
