A Lone Tree and then Towering Mesas off in the Distance (Bears Ears National Monument)

            With another image at this point, I'd pulled back on the focal length as I'd wanted to capture a wider angle view that one typically see when wide-eye. Here I zoomed in to focus on this one tree. I decided to keep it to the left for a number of reasons. One was the road right next to it. Another was to have it as something of a frame an anchor to catch the eye. The eyes would then be lead off to the far off mesas. The color contrasts would also add another element to the image with the yellows and greens in the bottom of the image to the browns and reds of the mesas. The blue skies above would then be the final color contrast to complete the image and setting along the Indian Creek Corridor Scenic Byway.
