After a cloudy day the sun shines over the hoodoos of Goreme National Park before the sunset in Cappadocia.
Nevsehir, Turkey.

That's great light you captured here, and those rocks are very nice! I think I would decrease the saturation a bit in the blue sky, it looks a bit strong to me.

Serkan, those are very striking rock formations. I also like the changes in the light from bottom to top. I agree with Roel that the sky is oversaturated, it's getting close to looking like a night time sky.

This is an amazing looking Park. Love the layers of rock and light. I agree that the sky looks unaturally blue. Tone that down a bit and you have a very nice image.

What a great landscape Serkan. I agree about the blue saturation in the sky. It also appears that there is some cloud to work with in there that would really set off the mountains below. I'd suggest experimenting with the sky's contrast, etc.

Love the layers of line and form, light and shadow. An outstanding image. While the blue sky might be a little strong, it does really help to emphasize that golden light.

Serkan, This looks like a great National Park! I like the light and shadow in this and the colors are very nice. I do agree that the blue in the sky is a little saturated but otherwise very nicely done. Vance is right thou, it does bring out the light and other colors.

Thank you all for your comments. In this first version as far as I remember I have toned down the exposure on the sky locally. After the comments I retry to process the image without having some particular retouch for the sky and you can see the second version below. I hope this one seems better with a brighter sky. By the way, it was a rainy day and there was a quite dark sky at the background.

Very nice except for perhaps oversaturation, esp in the sky. And I'd like to see a bit more sky above those beautiful rocks for more balance. BEautiful colors and textures.
