Nice one, Will. I like the deep, dark, rich colors. The sky is a nice touch to the already cool layers.

Such a beautifully simple composition from here Will. I like the layers. It almost looks like a giant creature lying down to rest.

This has a very distinct look, that I like a lot. You had a nice sky to go along with it too. Somehow different than anything else I can remember from there.

Nice, simple composition, layers look really nice here. Overall, a bit too dark for my tastes though.

Great colors and the barren fg works nice with the hills. Well done.

I'm a sucker for the long exposures, and the hills really seem to glow. Nice processing!

Really love the simplicity and the rich color. I really think this darker presentation helps convey that post-sunset/twilight feel. Well done!

Will,

This is wonderful! I've never been, but I find this to be somewhat of a unique capture from the Painted Hills - of course the fabulous light and dramatic sky help a little too... :-) Not only that, but I find the foreground to be an important and complimentary part of the landscape. I think this is beautifully captured - and what a wonderful moment. Great work in processing too. No nits from me.

Very very cool. Great job getting something different. could say you could crop in a bit from the top right as seems a bit too empty there but everything else is spot on :)

What an amazing image, almost surreal, the mountain looks like a big worm crossing the desert. Congrats for this unique photo Will.

The lighting on this is incredible. It looks very surreal. I feel like I can reach out and touch the mountains through my monitor.

This is down right amazing Will. What a fabulous and different shot of this area. I like the darkness of the shot.

Beautifully done. The blurring of the clouds is fantasic on the painted hills. Almost magical.
