I do love this image. Nature's chaos at its best. These badland hills in this area of Grand Staircase are pinkish-red and white in color but when translated to black & white tones, become a palette of tones that echoes the ridges and swirls of the rocks.

I used Silver Efex Pro to do the black & white translation and I can always tell that when every single one of the variations proposed by the software looks stunning, it's a winner.
