This is quite an astonishing collection of shapes and colors. I sure do like the repeated shapes in the mid-ground hills and the sense of distance that the upper right corner adds.

I like this. You have captured a unique take on this location. I'm curious - it seems much more green than what I am used to seeing from others' photos. Is this due to seasonality or was this captured during an unusually wet year?

Either way, I especially like the color palette with all of the various layers that keep my eyes moving throughout the frame. The composition works very well. Great work!!
