Really cool shot, love the mountains. Looks like you have some great places to ride. Tripod shot or another person?

It's my wife. Hand held shot. She was not posing. She was unaware I was photographing her. She is looking down into the uber-deep Black Canyon of the Gunnison. ...as impressive as Half Dome in its way. See it before you die.

nice!!, as I see it the first time I wince a bit like when you feel someone is too close to the edge

any more photos of the canyon ???

I see you used F11, wanted to get everything in focus ?
probably needed like F22 and a higher ISO

Yeah Armando. I have more shots from this six day ride. I will probably post a few more over the next few weeks.

It is hard to get usable shots when the light is so harsh and I did not have either a UV filter or a polarizing filter, both of which would help. I left my polarizer at home. Dunno why, I brought every freaking thing else....
