The area where these natural pillars are situated is accessible only on the Navajo guided horse tours. I set the telephoto lens at 162mm to bring the formation closer.
It was a clear day, so I added a cloudscape from my recent trip to Idaho, and positioned it so the splash of cloudspray is behind the Totem Pole formation.
Additional coloration and HDR processing was added in Skylum's Aruora HDR, but then I dialed down the browns and yellows in the sand, and overlaid another layer using a black and white filter to add the whitish blue tinge to the distant buttes.
