Hi Art.
Great presentation of this cute place. Excellent selection of the POV and framing of the image. Especially I like image of the tree on the left side. DOF and details of the entire scene are ultimate as well as the soft pleasant lighting and vivid colours. Well done and TFS.

Wow, two postings of this area in one day!... and I had never heard of it before. Your narrow aperture sure gave you deep depth of focus. It looks like a technically well managed photo.

Hi Art,
Its like somebody used a big knive and cut each top of the mountains. Its just amazing to see all the flat heads on top of these wonderful shaped rocks and pinacles. I love the texture in the rock and the many different colors green. The details and composition are great, especially the way you used the tree.
TFS,
Niek

Hi Art

What a stunning scene here! The 3D pattern is just amazing and the natural contrast of the place really attracts attention right from the thumbnail!
Very well seen and captured, with an excellent sense of perspective and depth. Your exposure is in my opinion spot-on and due to that all the tones and the colors came out lovely.
Composition wise, i like the fact that you kept the sky short - emphasizing the canyon - but i'm not that sure on the tree on the left.
Anyway, wonderful work!

Bravo and TFS
Horia
