Here's another one from Red Canyon. Color this time.

Nice. However, I think that it would better if you darkened the floor. The lightness of the bottom of the canyon pulls the eye down and away from the main subject--the curves of the walls.

I would also open up the shadows just a little bit. But, yes, it is nice.

I like how the shadows reach into each corner except the bottom left which is the path.  Leads me into it, and connects geometrically quite nicely.

Nice shot. To me, it looks like the rock face on the right is a bit too light. I would darken it a bit, to add a more brooding feel.

I also like that there are no visible footprints on the ground.

I like the composition with the right side that leads the viewer into the slot. I also agree with the previous comments about darkening the path&right wall/opening some shadows etc…
