Here's something a little different. Instead of a sweeping grand scene taken with a wide-angle lens, it's a small detail of a fantastic sandstone finger taken with a short telephoto lens. The nice clouds in the background didn't cover up much more of the sky than was needed for this composition, and the wispy clouds at the top followed the top of the finger to make this a really pleasing composition for me. Enjoy!
