Description
Over 15 hundred years ago Anasazi farmers and gatherers were looking out at this scene, at Mesa Verde, into a place that would one day be called Colorado. The pure vastness of the landscape here makes it a very special place. I am sure the ancients were as moved, if not more so, than we are. It is an easy place to connect to the land and the ancestors.

over Mesa Verde? nope! not since that crash..... great shot and wonderful view - I can feel the olde magic from here
That's a great picture. What a lovely view!
Beautiful landscape. The high contrast B&W looks cool. I'd be curious to see a color version, if there is one. Amazing vista.
Arthur, I almost posted the colored version but its an old slide and the colors didn't do justice to the scene. It was easier to do a contrasty image in Grayscale. But if there is demand for color I will post it.
I love Colorado.beautiful landscape you have shared
Brilliant photo
This is so majestic - I like the old style, puts me in the mind of Ansel Adams a bit. I think it would be perfect to shoot a western movie in!
love the b&w capture Roxy, reminds me of that photographers work of colorado he did in the 1800's, his name fails me right now. very beautiful, wish i knew when you visited my state, would have been cool to hook up.
I like this in b/w... what a fantastic scene. To look out over territory like this is one of the most spiritually inspiring things a person can do in life.
Beautiful B&W. Brings back memories of my visit of so long ago in full living color. (Hope to see more from this area, we have far to few. I'm really enjoying this trip back in time.)
A lot of history to this beautiful land. Nice shot. Aloha
I have read a lot about these people and the Holokum. Fascinating people and both disappeared without reason, leaving a hole in the earth and the history of mankind. Excellent landscape.
Spectacular view!
boy oh boy, you really know how to frame nature's wonder. This is truly breath taking and the post work really underscores its beauty. I said it once and I will say it again--I truly envy you your travels.
Roxie, this is simply amazing. The level of detail you captured here is second to none.
Amazing view!
Fascinating mystery for us today...a vast landscape. Well done.
excellent

Fantastic view!
its funny when you are up close you don't appericate how beautiful something like this is. when you look at it from a distance you think omg that is beautiful, great shot
Very beautiful shot!
Great B&W shot,Great POV!Also Thank you for the info Roxy:-))Color version could be interesting!:-))))
An amazing view of an awesome and awe-inspiring place. You don't appreciate how big the sky or the land is until you see a view like this. Contrast something like this to your "Old Men" picture, where the city closes everything in and it's easy to see how we forget just how boxed in we've become. Wonderful photo, Roxy!
Now I understand why they built thier homes where they did... What * A * View!! Super shot, Roxy! I'll be back soon...
Great photo Roxy!!!!!!!!!
