I had the distinct pleasure of flying through Monument Valley some years ago. I did a flight from Durango, CO to Monument Valley Airport for an EAA breakfast fly-in. It’s so breathtakingly beautiful, words cannot describe it.
That photo would look good without the wing in it. With a Cessna you can place part of the wing at the top of the picture and use it as a supporting element, a frame in composition. What you have here is a big white element stuck right in the middle, a distraction and one brightly lit.
