Just beautiful - I love the majenta sky and pink clouds and especially the leading lines. I really feel though, that a little dodging of the highlights in the fg and less so in the midground would make the lines, and the image, in general, more dynamic

Great leading lines, and the subtle light on the clouds is wonderful.

Very nice, Ian. Love the detailed texture.

Also, congrats on the feature article in OP. I found it very interesting and thought I recognized a couple of the images from this forum.

Very pretty. The leading lines echo the whispy clouds.

This is a sweet image! I really love the colors in the sky and the rocks, plus the leading lines. One small thing - the left corner seems a bit dark to me.

Wonderful sky and great use of the patterns in the sandstone. I love the color palette. Definitely my kind of landscape.

Definitely has your simple straight forward stamp on it. A bit more subtle maybe than other work of yours. Nice. I too might dodge the white line coming into the scene a tad.

Wonderful image and place, pleasure to view, well done. I like an image that has the same subtle color range throughout the whole image.
