This is very beautiful. I can’t think of a way to improve this. Wonderful image.
Maybe crop off that orange wedge on the far left. Not a biggie. In fact that messes up the comp.
Thanks, Igor. It’s gratifying to know that someone else sees what I saw here.

I really enjoy your abstracts. I think this is one of your best.
This is a very nice composition with strong subject matter. Great "eye’ to find this .

Hi Don,
You rocked this, pun intended. All kidding aside the soft light is gorgeous and has created some nice shadows giving this image a sense of depth while accentuating all the textures and details in the rock face. This also has a wonderful sense of flow with the diagonals. No suggestions from me as this is nicely done.
Michael, Ed, thanks. Ed, I think that sense of depth is why this one works and a lot of my rock photos don’t.
