Twilight Queen - a photo on Flickriver

Twilight Queen

            The Chess Queen, Coyote Buttes South, Arizona.

If you look in National Geographic magazine, Feb. 2012, p.115, you will see their version. I guess that's why they get the big bucks.  My camera was right up against a steep wall. If you go up to the top of the wall, it's too high and you don't get the rock against the sky. It looks like the natgeo photographer (Richard Barnes) was about halfway up the wall. Either he's an excellent climber or he had a ladder. I am/had neither of these. Maybe in May ladigue_99 can give me a boost up. :-)
