Keep them coming. Parowan Gap is such a special place. I'm so pleased we have such great access to it. It draws us back over and over. (My husband and I are the couple from Washington with the truck camper and jeep who were parked at the summer solstice cairn.) I frame some of my shots of Rock Art too. As for your question, I'd choose the first photo you showed with the sky in the background. I'm thinking it would look nice with several smaller tight shots of individual rock art images around it. I didn't see any pictures of the stone silhouette of Tobats, the Indian God. It makes for great art too. It's pretty easy to recognize any time, but you have to get the light right for the best images. It's near the cave, above and to the left.

As you well know I feel the same way about this magical location. I can spend hours out there just watching and waiting for time to pass by. Thanks for sharing your shots and let me know if you ever just want to go out there and shoot with a friend. Shooting black and white out there is a good idea.

It's like being there. Thanks for sharing. I’ve seen a lot of photos of The Gap but never any with such good color. It’s like being there. Thanks for sharing.

They make a beautiful canvas for the art! I like the first one (with the shrubs), because I like shrubs and I like the rocks themselves. They make a beautiful canvas for the art!

Especially in black and white. I think what I like best though is the juxtaposition of the dark, moody mountains to the bright & clear sunlight. I can totally relate to what you said about scouting locations and always thinking of a person in the landscape, not just a landscape alone. Though you're landscape shots are ahhhmazing! :) I really like number three. Especially in black and white.

If you're more interested in art then the others might be fine but I feel like context is a huge part of any type of art. It is what gives it meaning. Have you thought of doing a triptych? p.s. Have you ever been to Lions Mouth? There is some interesting rock art there. Personally I like the first one because you not only see the rock art itself but the context that it is in.
