A Hush That Falls Over an Acclaimed Wonder (Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park)

A view looking to the northwest across the canyon and gorge with blue skies above while walking the Warner Point Nature Trail and then at a vantage overlook in Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. This wound up being a difficult image to capture as I was more or less looking into the sun. I worked different angles to minimize that by angling my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward. That allowed me to create a more sweeping view across this national park landscape and definitely bring out more of the grand view present. I initially used Nikon ViewNXi to export a TIFF image with minimal processing of only a landscape setting and white balance. I then worked with DxO PhotoLab 3 to finish up post-processing by making adjustments to saturation, brightness and contrast.
