Still processing pics from my trip and this one came up. Wow my original is razor sharp. It really got degraded being posted here.

Very nice, and it brings back memories.
As a teenager camping there with my parents, we witnessed a traditionally dressed Navajo family herding a flock of sheep down a trail from the rim. They were dressed up in their colorful silks and cotton clothes with the grandmother leading the way with a lantern, the mother and children tending the sheep and the father in the back on his horse.
I wish I had a camera back then.

Hey Bynx, although I have not posted in a while, I just got back from a trip to AZ (Sedona, Monument Valley (return trip), and Canyon De Chelly. Amazing places to visit. I had the wrong lens on when I went to Spider Rock but used my phone. Will post some when I get the chance. Thanks for the pics!

Bynx,
I agree about the lack of clarity the posted shot looks as if it was taken with California smog blanketing the whole area.
The vista is right on...

Did you apply a sharpening tool after resizing. I find that a simple sharpen does wonders in this case.

I do all my processing on the hi res image. Then after saving it I reduce the size from 300 dpi to 72 dpi @ 25% if horizontal image and 18% if vertical image. Something is definately getting changed between my computer and the site. Check the image here against the same lo res image on my flickr page..... www.flicker.com/photos/paul-mitchell
