behind the shadow

i am not sure if this photo will appeal to everyone... something a little different... when walking through the "mounds", there were a couple of passages where i was standing in a tunnel of sorts, where the sun would not get into... on each end i could see the light and red rocks and i really liked the way that the shadows formed strong lines and silhouettes to reveal what was ahead of us...

Canon EOS 400D 1/60 second F/8.0 ISO 100 16 mm

Of those shown so far, I am truly attracted to this one....I feel as if I am coming out of the shadow into the sun and to those wonderful ancient rockforms. Nice one! ^_^

This is a great shot - coming out of the shadow with the trees giving a sense of scale to this gigantic red rock formation looming over you.
