Eye To Eye

Before my first visit to Arches NP in Utah, I had seen many pictures of Turret Arch shot through North Window. It wasn't until I walked towards this giant opening myself and noticed it's position relative to Turret Arch, that it was so much larger than I thought.

The first thing I therefore did was to add a human element to the shot to give a sense of scale to the image. It's still the same icon that's been shot to death, but the combination of the human element and the snow in the background make it just a little more different from the rest, which was all I was after.
