Arches


Sierras seen from White Mountains

Rock arches are amazing formations. Small or large, you can't help but wonder what turned a solid rock into a sweeping, graceful arch. An arch is a great thing to photograph, but if you're really lucky, you can situate yourself so you can shoot a landscape through the arch, and the arch serves as a frame for your subject. Besides accentuating your subject, the frame adds an extra layer of interest to your over all picture.

Natural frames add so much to a photograph, it would be nice if you could haul an arch around with you, but they tend to get heavy and just won't fit into a camera bag. However, if you have Photoshop, you can add an arch anytime you want, and that's basically what I've done with this series of art and photos. Only one of the arches in the following group is real. See if you can figure out which one it is.
