Snow at Monument Valley

(shot on Nikon d5200 at 35mm prime 1/200s f.8)
This is a classic travel picture that is so souvenir that the highway has a large shoulder built so tourists can all pile in for a quick photo. Foturently, I was there early right after a large snowstorm had pummeled the land and was able to get a clear shot without any cars/people and a different snowy look.

"Monument Valley is a region of the Colorado Plateau characterized by a cluster of vast sandstone buttes, the largest reaching 1,000 ft (300 m) above the valley floor.[1] It is located on the Arizona–Utah border (around 36°59′N 110°6′WCoordinates: 36°59′N 110°6′W), near the Four Corners area. The valley lies within the range of the Navajo Nation Reservation and is accessible from U.S. Highway 163.

Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Director John Ford used the location for a number of his best-known films and thus, in the words of critic Keith Phipps, "its five square miles [13 square kilometers] have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West.""
