You realize that you have made it very difficult for people to
share nature shots here don't you?


Ouch. 


all fine, and some just spectacular... and look ma, no HDR!


Hate to disappoint you, Ann...
All the Petra shots except #6 and #7 are HDR. 
The real-life contrast was just way beyond, so I had to.

Simply super Jostein. I think it's time you treated yourself to
an ultra wide angle for that 645D !


LOL you might actually flatter me into that one some day. These shots were 
taken with the K-5, tho. I have the DA 14mm to cover that base.



Literally awesome work.

Petra is fascinating. I expected it to be, too.
But I really liked the rest of the country as well.
Hope they stay peaceful down there, with all the turmoil going on across

The entrance to Petra is actually one long and winding slot canyon. There 
are more of them in the area, but I had no time.
