Beautiful formation, I love the crisp detail, texture and colors. I might suggest burning in the distant bluffs, they seem a bit washed out.

I agree with Kurt the distant bluffs are too hot. Bring those down and you've got a great image. Also I might look at a square crop of the right side - I don't think you'd lose anything and less of those bluffs would show.

Absolute fantastic detail brought out on that formation and it is an awesome formation with very nice patterns and textures not to mention nice colors.

Nice image, though I agree with the others in regards to the intensity of the distant bluffs.

Very interesting composition. I like it. I'm seeing a halo around the rock. Was this double processed?

Love the composition and the rock formations are very interesting. The foreground light is amazing. The crisp details in the fg are great.

I appreciate your comments. I went back a relooked at my original unconverted image and the range in the back was much more burned in then in the post. I reconverted and reposted. As an aside, this image just won 2nd place in a worldwide contest.

Fabulous rock formation. Great detail makes a textural feast here.
