White House Ruins

White House Ruins

In Canyon De Chelly Az. These are the famous cliff dwellings that Ansel Adams photographed. When I visited that area of the southwest a couple rolls of film were overexposed, particularly the ones from this area. I liked this shot anyway however and have worked on it with photo shop. The southwest in daylight is harsh and part of what one remembers about the area.

    I love the angle. It enhances the stiations in the Canyon walls. The times I’ve seen it, it was straight on. I like your angle better.
