Hate to break it to you but the larger image is not sharp. Smaller version looks much better... colors and textures are all great.

Amazing place. Really like the irregular regularity of the foreground.

Nice. I like how the soft light on the foreground contrasts with the bright background light and the sky is the icing on the cake.

Rick,

Terrific landscape image. Great light in the background, complementary sky and I like the composition with the river of rock leading the viewer in to the scene.

This posted version looks sharp enough, but as Luke pointed out, the larger version is pretty far off. If you like you can post or email me because I would like to ask what your process is for generating the larger version. In general, you should always generate the smaller and larger versions separately from your master file. But then maybe you just forgot to sharpen the larger version?

That larger version would really "rock" if the sharpening was there.

Good looking HRD imaging. It won't print well due to softness but it is fine as a small jpeg.
