This is an image taken at Polychrome Pass from our bus trip into Denali this summer. I like the play between the shadows and color, but I would like some more input. Thanks for your comments.

Nice Richard. There does seem to be a lot of dust spots in the sky and a little "soft" in the focus. I might suggest a small crop from the bottom to remove the diagonal line in the RFG.

I like the layers of light and tone. It has that great Alaskan light as well. Well done.

I like this a lot Richard. I am not one who screams for more detail in the shadows. Sometimes less is more. I was here in the early 80's and really like this beautiful take on this wonderous place.

Nice--classic Denali scene! I would brighten up the midtones/lights justy a tad.

Very well done. I backpacked in this area a few years ago, and this image brings back the sensations of that trip. My dog got his name--Toklat--from the river there.
