Sandy,

Do you have any examples of using the same techniques on your own Photos? I mean the before and afters

You: Blah Blah Blah

Wow Sandy, those are some amazing shots. You really have a talent for this.
I'd love to have some poster size hirez of those pics. Have you ever thought about doing a showing?
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

If you click the images, the high res is available on Flickr.

Do a show? No... I'm a gross amateur, but thanks. ;)

Oh... and here's one more from this afternoon:

Sandman can you give one of mine a try?  The composition is crap so I won't post it here :p   But I've tried to fix it and never found anything that works.  I don't have the .raw anymore unfortunately.

Really nice pics.

Ok, I have to ask.  How are you getting that amazing sky?  

Your pictures are making me want to visit the American southwest again.  Haven't been there since I was a kid.
Do not attribute to malice what can be easily explained by incompetence, fear, ignorance or stupidity, because there are millions more garden variety idiots walking around in the world than there are blackhearted Machiavellis.

A lot if not most of it is the lens. Something about the way the Tokina 12-24mm f/4 refracts light just makes the blue pop. On top of that, I do an adjustment while in "Lab Color" mode with PhotoShop that pushes it a bit further.

Ya know... Star Trek V: The Final Frontier was filmed here. It was the center of the universe.
