I would crop off the bottom oof foreground, but I like the framing and there is some sweet light and interesting subjects in the middle ground.

A pretty scene and nice light. I do agree with the crop off the bottom, at least half way up to the edge of the rock.

The OOF FG bothers me as well, and I agree it would strengthen the image if you cropped it off. I like the framing and I think the scene is very nice. Also wish for a little more light in the ULC. TFS

Nice image and great light, Rick. IMO a crop from the foreground might add more punch to the pic. :smile:

I appreciate the comments. They are spot on. Here's the cropped image.

Rick,

"A Window to the West" is what comes to mind for me. And what a terrific window and view this is. I would agree with an other comment about cropping about 1/2 of the foreground. You'll still have the window effect, but as presented the oof rock at the bottom is mildly detracting. Otherwise, I like the view through the window of juniper, sandstone formations and clouds.

Good vision here.

Lon
