Beautiful light and a classic composition. I could see a little more contrast but I like the flow of this as is

I agree with Nancy on contrast. Ramp up the blacks a bit in photo shop levels and see what happens. Good composition.

Very neat shot, Richard. Some nice light and wonderful color, and I like how you framed this. It looks good to me just as you have it here.

What a beautiful shot! At first, looking at the thumbnail, it looked like a macro abstract--until I clicked on it to see the full image. Love the composition and subtle color tones.

This is a lovely image. I love the lines of color in the rocks and the bare trees make a nice contrast to the lines of the rock.
