At any other time of day the details and color will be bleached out in the harshness of the sun. I took this around 30mins before sunset. Sunrise might give you more scope, as at sunset certain compositions will mean shooting into the sun. For example, I couldn't have took this on the opposing side of the bend, the other half of the S if you will, as the sun although on the horizon caused too many contrast issues and lens flare. Let me know how you go Thanks Greg,

I'll be making my first trip to Horseshoe Bend in January--what time of day would you recommend visiting? Cheers, Greg Russell I’m digging the S-curve you’ve captured here.
