Well...Horseshoe Bend is the beginnings of the Grand Canyon

Dont know why I passed over this one, but processed it a few weeks ago....its becoming one of my favorites.

Tried a diffrent perspective than the normal and overdone horizontal approach.

Hope you all like.

I had been talking to another fellow who does weddings while I was in the UK. He said one thing that stuck in my head. He said that if you want to do different work, get 'different lenses.' He said something specifically like this. 'Everyone has common zooms and zoom ranges. If you want different looking perspective, you need ot use different types of lenses.' He is right. The same thing, I think is coming out here as many of Roman's best shots are coming out with that ultra-wide.
