I am quite sure that if anybody had the right equipment and good light,
this could ne photographed superbly.
In the meantime here is my effort taken during the 15 minutes of sun we had.

These are the cliffs of the Chilo Gorge in Gonareazhou National Park, Zimbabwe

Ken,

Excellent. The pano crop is perfectly appropriate here. Great clouds which really add to the scene. No nits or suggestions really. Nicely captured.

Wonderful composition and excellent crop. The nice sharp details give this a very natural feel. Good job

Under the circumstances, this is quite fine. Looks remarkably like places in the American SW.

Don't know what apps you're using, but try whatever it takes to achieve a selective dodging of the fg below the river. There's a pattern of lines there that could create additional interest if they were brought out a little more.
