I like your focus on the gap between rocks. I feel it needs something more to make a compelling image imho.

I like the concept; I wish there were more for the eye to find. :smile:

I like the natural symmetry in the comp Ron, the fine detail and the contrast between the rock face and the greenery. This works very well for me as posted.

I like it a lot. The crack structure provides a real solid composition for my eye, along with the rock shape and texture and the greenery adds a good dimension. A real nice semi-abstract!

I like this Ronald. At first glance, it did not grab my attention, but I came back a few times and enjoyed the detail. I find it amazing what grabs our attention in the field as individuals. Thanks for sharing. :wavey:

The crack draws me right in to the nice details of the foliage and textures of the rock. Neat concept, here, Ronald.

I like your composition, Ron. I saw a bunch of scenes like this in the Smokies, but always had a hard time visualizing a strong composition.

I like this image for presentation of rock and vegetation. The framing is solid, and one can study the details and many varying formations through out this nicely captured image.
