Mother Nature continues to inspire. I will never get tired to looking at photos of natural vistas, big open skies, or natural arches like this one that leave me wondering how it could ever be made.

What I like about this one is the asymmetry. The eye starts off to the left and the arch lifts it up into the sky, which is expansive; and the open plains behind it really gives off a sense of eternity. It speaks, to me at least, of the Wild West of lore that movies and stories and music tries to hearken to. It screams Americana and evokes... almost nostalgia, even though I've never been to the southwest.

For a critique - and really it's not a critique so much as as suggestion for improvement, and that would have been to wait (? or early?) for the sky to be a little more vibrant. Washing everything out in a rich gold or blazing orange would make for an even more impressive shot.
