Since we are talking about the haze issue, I thought I would post one where I felt that the haze was a major factor in the feeling of the photo. In fact, without the haze, I probably would not have taken this shot. It was at the Island of the Sky overlook at Canyonlands near sunset time. I will be curious to see what you think.
