You can get some amazing light in VOF, Chet , and you captured some here. Really nice, crisp, and clean image.

Chet, This is very nice. I like looking at the large version as it just seems to put me there. Nice light and color!

All of the elements are here and the color and detail are fine but the comp leaves me feeling a bit ambivalent about the image. I think it may be that I want to see more sky.

Nice take on the red rock country at VofF.

Nice scene you captured Chet, but the light is a little flat. Maybe a bit more contrast to make it pop more would be good.

I think technically the image works aside from maybe opening up the shadows in the rocks on the left. But the image doesn't work for me compositionally, I prefer to have an image with a focal point that the eye can go to and rest and I don't see that here. The light is a little flat as well, better light could have brought out the detail and textures in the rock.

Nice shot from a place I've been interested to go see lately. I like the sky for a daylight type shot. I might be tempted to try and darken the blues just a little.

Very nice fore ground Chet with nice details and colors. I could see darkening the sky some [more blue] to better match the tones in the fore ground. Pretty scene though.
