Nice shot. Out of curiosity, is this an HDR image? The rock to the right and immediate foreground looks kinda washed out, whereas the rock in shadow to the left looks luminous.

You must be on a great road trip.

Thanks Desi. I see what you're saying. To Answer your question , It's a manual blend of 2 exposures and the arch and its changing color do look this way.

Beautiful shot. Where is that? It looks like Utah or New Mexico.

Gorgeous!

Only thing I'd change is editing out the blue lens flare in the lower left area.
