Description
A brilliant, golden monsoon season sunset overtakes the Chiricahua Mountains of southeastern Arizona. Some three hours east of Tucson, these peaks are adorned with countless vertical rock columns and hoodoos. Massai Point is the summit of the scenic road leading into the Chiricahua National Monument, and offers some of the most dramatic scenery along the western Chihuahuan Desert of the American Southwest. The warm, colorful glow from the sunset illuminates the rocks adorning the peaks and boulders as Rhyolite Canyon descends into darkness. The Dragoon Mountains can be seen way off in the distance, near the setting sun.

The light in this image is incredible. I love the way you brought out the detail and depth of color in what must be full shadow.
