Scott - Very nice subjects/composition... I think a little too wan...very atmoshperic though maybe at the expense of helping "the well defined structure" of the image?  Also, in middle of frame I see what looks like a magenta/viridian band resembling "lens cast"? /B

[Rajan Parrikar]

It is a beautiful image (quite Westfjords like in Iceland). That colour band needs tending to.

I like the atmosphere of that one

Well captured.

Beautiful composition. I agree with Rajan about the color banding. I would also add a little more contrast to the image. As presented it's a little flat.

Nicely composed.  IMO the contrast is fine and honors the nature of the light.

Many thanks! I'll keep these comments in mind as I work further on the picture.

Beautiful composition and the atmosphere is captured well.

I realize it is a "grey" day, but having been in similar conditions a number of times, I should think the tonal values just below "neutral grey" could be a zone or two higher - not to be white-out conditions, but to give more life to the snow. The brightness of the sun will have caused the values to be lowered; bringing them back up again -without raising the values of the dark/black rock- just may help.

+1!

It's an invitation to venture into the landscape and discover what lies beyond these mountains…
Well done.

Good points, Terry. This version does not do justice to the bright snow. Further, I have another version with more sunlight in the center valley that I look forward to processing.

Eric, Francois:  glad you liked it.

Great composition and mystery.

Beautiful composition with some great lines and texture drawing me in!

There is an odd color band that catches my eye as well as a dust spot but those should both be easy to correct and really make the image shine. I agree it could also be a tad brighter. All minor issues.
