Taken this morning as the sun came up over the Grand Mesa and struck the red rock cliffs of the Colorado National Monument. It was about 12 degrees out.

Excellent job capturing the cold/warm combination of light -- my only nit would be the tree on the right edge of the frame, since its cutoff. I would rather have it all or nothing in that case.
I agree with Paul's crop suggestion. It would be much stronger without the tree on the right. Also maybe open the shadows in the FG up just a bit either in levels or shadows/highlights (not much, just a tiny bit). LOVE the color in this. It's awesome how the Monument glows at sunrise/sunset. I was out this morning too, and it WAS very, very cold so kudos for braving it
