Window Rock

While out on Fremont CR #77 I saw this rock off in the distance. I'm not sure how far it was.  But when I saw it I knew that iwas going to have to use my telephoto lens. So I broke out the camera and put on my EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 lens. I had the lens fully extended to 300mm. I would have like to been a little closer to the formation, but it was on private property. At this point I would normally break out the tripod, but a gave it a try to see how steady I would be. I snapped the picture and it was not blurry at all so I kept the photo.  This is what I got.


It came out pretty good. But I would have much rather had some clouds in the picture. Plain blue sky to me make the picture look boring.  My Camera settings on the picture were:
ISO: 100
Shutter Speed: 1/250
Aperture:9.0
Here is the picture after I tone mapped it in Photomatix.
