If you are in the mood for a huge pile of cliche, here's the whole set:

The photographer in several of them was some guy named Scott. As I told him,
he made a great compositional balance. Rather than just a picture of the
landscape, I felt having him in there helped to tell a story.
You got a great set there Larry! (and I'm talking images). cliche'd or
not (and I really dislike the cliche notion) you obviously had a
lovely painterly sky to work with and created a nice honest set of
images, I enjoyed them anyhow ;)
Thanks Rob and Boris.
Seriously, with the potential of a sunset like that, a free hour, and Natural
bridges 10 minutes away, cliche or not, I'd have been a fool not to see what I
could do with it.

I completely agree, Larry. Your little corner of the world is absolutely
lousy with photo-fodder -- cliche or otherwise.
Hardly a day goes by when I don't think about the time I spent there,
and what I would've done differently if I'd known then what I know now.
I took a lot of photos while I was there, but I can't get past the
feeling that, from a technical standpoint at least, I really squandered
the opportunity.
