Great comp and light Bob! My only nit is that the saturation seems a bit much, I might turn that down a bit. I might also try a crop from the LHS.

nice scene Bob
I agree on the saturation...and it seems to be sloping slightly to the RHS or is that an illusion?
you sure have some amazing geological structures in the US...

This is nice. Just the right amount of detail in the shadows. I'm OK with the saturation as is. I really like the composition.

I really like the sense of depth and the isolation of the foreground pillars. I also like the colors and lighting in the immediate foreground but I could also see cropping that part out as it pulls attention from the rock outcrops.

Would echo the saturation. Did you recover some of this? It looks like it's been pulled in a little too much...

Other than that, it's a well composed shot.

Bob,

Looks like the sky and storm Gods were with you this day. I like the left to right flow of the composition and the sky/storm echos that.

Have to agree on the saturation - mostly evident with the foreground. The saturation contrast (if that's a term) between the reds and greens in the foreground is a little strong.

The only other suggestion would be if you could eek out some exposure on the main rock formation that could improve things a little.

A few tweaks and you'll have a keeper for sure.

Nice shot - great light & composition.

I think the saturation in the FG is a little strong but not by too much, especially if it was wet from the storm you depict. But I would back it off just a bit.

Excellent photo Bob! The comp is great as and the sky blessed you with some great light!! If this were mine, I might tone down the foreground just a little, but leave the rest of that magic light just like it is.
Congrats on a Beautiful photograph!!

What a great comp, Bob, with the rule-of-thirds determining the focal point. The tonal transitions feel a bit abrupt, though the depth created by the different light is nice.

Some sweet light you found here. A radiance I can feel. The prcessing looks a little un-natural, but considering the lighting is probably completely natural. Very well done.

Beautiful! Love the soft, warm sky. Foreground does look slightly oversaturated, but that may just be how the scene was with the warm light. I'd agree with the comment of perhaps increasing the exposure very slightly on the main rock formation. Excellent work.

Thanks to all for your suggestions and comments. Here's a re-do with a little more exposure to the rock face and a little less sat in the foreground. I also took a look at giving more base to the image, or should I have stayed with the original crop? Thanks again-

Really nice comp. Ditto on the other comments.
