This is by far one of my favorite places. Just off the Page, Arizona (a hometown for the glorious Antelope Canyon) lies this Colorado River U-turn, better known as Horseshoe Bend. You actually have to hike about 20 minutes to get there but it well worth it. I mean look at this!
To actually fit all this glory into a single picture I had to stitch together 12 shots (every single one of those were HDR images too, that makes it 48 pictures taken) into one big panorama.
HDRI Details: 3 shots -2/0/+2 each, processed in Photomatix Pro.
Equipment used: Canon 5D Mark2 + 24-105 / f4 L USM
