Wonderful light and those clouds certainly fill up the sky rather nicely, Scott. I particularly like the details in the large version as it lets my eye wander and savor this landscape. Beautifully done.

This is a unique Comp from this area. As with your previous image you handled the light and contrast well. The clouds also add a lot of interest. Nicely done!

Scott, the lovely sky and the rock formations are terrific. I'm less excited about the foreground grassy area. If the hint of trail on the right were stronger it would balance with rock formation. As presented, I think that cropping to just below the stick in the trail focuses attention of my favorite parts.

Scott, a look back on your gallery and seeing the images from this area of CRNP provides some solid insight into the southwestern terrain, especially the colorful Utah clay.
Only change for me is just a tiny boost in saturation, but the main image is there to enjoy & make changes to as one sees fit......

That's an impressive bit of rock. Very nice color composition in this image. A fine grand landscape.

Scott, What a great looking scene you captured here. This comp works very well for me and I like how it draws me back through the scene and all the way to those beautiful clouds and wonderful blue sky. Very nice!

Another nice CRNP image Scott. I think I like this with 1/3 of the foreground grasses cropped, about the same place that Mark suggested.

Scott, this is very nice. The color palette is beautiful, as is the comp. I like the balance of sky to mid-ground to foreground. Great work!

I really like the lively light and color. The wispy grasses in the foreground are a nice touch. Processing looks great.

Scott,
A well done landscape image. I like your composition with the main peak off center. The wispy clouds are a bonus and I like how grasses are a bit wispy as well. There's a small opening on the right of the foreground which gives feeling of wanting to walk right in to the scene. no nits from me.
