I replaced this image at Flickr and it deleted the original so that my post here did not show an image. I apologize for deleting the post with your comments - they were very helpful.

Looks great now without the triagular alien person in the pic. Wouldn't mind to see a little more high end throughout, I viewed this on my too bright laptop screen earlier and like it more so than on my calibrated monitor here.
John, I really like the colors and composition. Nautilus-like. Getting into my head (which could well be off-kilter), I think the sole person makes me think “posed,” whereas the previous version with a person and dog made me think “moment captured.” Funny how my mind works. Regardless, this is a pleasing image.
This is an awesome image! Nice job...no nits except maybe just a tiny bit more contrast, especially in the stone...I think you gan warm up that last glow on the sandstone more.
I really like this image, but I think it would be a tad better if the person was off to the side of the image. The rest of the image is so beautiful it is hard not to wander around, yet I feel a bit too drawn to the top center. Overall it is still an incredibily pleasing image - well done
