I found Bryce difficult because there are so many variations in the landscape it's hard to decide upon an in camera crop, which this was. as far as what's above, it's a treed canyon rim, maybe 10% the height of the displayed image and then sky. In this instance I thought it detracted from the type of image I was wanted. Crowds were pretty thin, but quadrupled the day after Thanksgiving... largely Japanese tour bus groups and a fair number of Europeans. Still sparse compared to summer I'm sure. It made it smaller because I already had the link going to the larger view. I agree, I hate the random popup ads now appearing on photo.net. Thanks for looking and commenting. I'll send you a larger version if you wish.
