Must be a Dude Ranch with all their guests out for a afternoon ride. Now the dusty and thristy riders are heading into town to the saloon! haha Probably close to the truth. Great shot of these riders but you need to warn them that the indians are waiting for them up ahead. Reminds me of old west movies and of course this is the area many of them were made. Thanks for the view and now you better get your horse going and catch up!

This is a great photograph with magnificent dof, color, and clarity. There is a very nice contrast of color between the landscape green and the mountains. I would like to be in that pack of riders. It reminds me of my last trip to Tucson.

I have to get back up to Monument Valley and take the ride as these lucky folks are. What a good shot that tells your story. Good frame, focus and exposure and I know John Wayne is just around the corner waiting to meet you.

I like the progression of this shot...the subjects in the foreground moving off down the trail. Nice composition and color palette. Thanks for sharing

A great shot of these riders all in a line in this great western landscape. Nice diagonal leading line. Great depth to the shot. Great shot.

Oh yes - give me a horse to join - that are the most wonderful moments to go out in groups and just share the great time - you got a perfect angle here showing the landscape and the way to go in this scene - just a very great shot with perfect camera settings - , DOF, great exposure and contrast

Very beautiful and well captured photo. I like the way you composed this picture showing the riders going leisurely in the valley.
