Girnar (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girnar) - A7R + 24-70 f4

Girnar is a sacred mountain range in India, with a few thousand uphill and downhill steps heading to various religious sites. This was an unplanned visit, I wish I had carried my 16–35, but I could not resist stitching a few shots.

Beautiful image of a beautiful view. The image looks very well exposed, colors look well balanced and detail are sharp. Very good job.

I enjoy the space and the depth and the atmosphere of this image. I also enjoy the layers of tonal value leading to the background.
I also like the inclusion of the people with their colorful dresses giving a sense of life to the place.
Isn’t much to say to elevate this image.

The only thing I can think of to improve the image is to eliminate some elements that to my eyes feel like distractions.
I am referring to some sensor's dirt spots visible on the sky.
I would also consider eliminate the power lines crossing on the right side of the image. but that is up to you.
Finally, and this is just personal, I would eliminate the white OOF stone in the foreground as it is bothering to the flow of the scene.

Again, a very fine image that doesn't need much to be improved, except some minor clean ups.

Glad you liked it. The out-of-focus stone is certainly distracting; I may edit it out.

This one is from the same town as the mountain.

I actually think the out of focus stone works from my perspective! It helps to frame the rest of the image and emphasize more of the landscape.

"The out-of-focus stone is certainly distracting;" >>>> Consider photo stacking at different points in your photo, its done all the time. Time to clean your sensor

Your first image is Lovely Landscape composition.
