Hi folks,

I am more regular on the Nature and Wildlife forum just experimenting with some landscape after a recent visit to South Africa. Will really appreciate your comments on the below shot. I have used a little extreme processng to bring out the effects and colours. Does it work?

I like it. Than again, I usually do quite heavy processing myself. Hard to tell it from the web picture but I would tone down the whites.

The FG seems pretty soft, but that could be compression...the horizon right in the center makes for a static composition: what was it about the scene that made you want other people to see it? Find that element and use your comp tools to feature it. Dave

It's not a bad shot, but I don't find it all that interesting. The foreground is a bit busy with the debris and the rocks blending together.
