I always say West Is Best. I have lived in Arizona and Washington State. I have visited New Mexico and Nevada and LOVED it! This is an awesome shot. Great tones and texture. Can't wait to go west again!
@aikiuser "a city born from the ruins of a former civilization" , hence it's called Phoenix... OK makes sense :) Also read about a supernova they have witnessed there, maybe you'll get a shot of that some day :)
@amyspada Thank you, Amy, you're so kind! Yeah, I try to start with a contrasty image, but sometimes I create the contrast by working with the color levels and experimenting until it looks like I envisioned.
