Very nicely done Douglas. Impressive detail not only in the rocks but throughout the entire scene. There is a real nice compression further into the scene as well giving a sense of infinity. Nice clouds too! Regards, TW

This without a doubt a beautiful landscape very well captured. I like too the movement of the branches captured in the photo. Really beautiful. TFS.

I was checking out the images that had won the "Texas Excellence Award" found this image. Oh my, oh my is it impressive. I have the same lens so I know what that will do but you PP has brought the colors to life - the rocks are stunning. Well deserved.
