Sunrise, a View and Set of Eyes Required! (Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park)

            While on a hike one morning in Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park to Tomichi Point along the Rim Rock Trail. The view is looking to the southeast from an overlook along the trail. What drew me into the setting was not just the use of some nearby for ground to give a sense of perspective for this setting, but also the outcroppings, spires, cross fissures of the canyon that I took in from this view. 

I later worked with control points in DxO PhotoLab 3 and then made some adjustments to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted for the final image.
