There is a rule about no critique if not asked for. A simple "I like it" is not a critique, simply an affirmation.

I wonder why the no critique 'rule' is not enforced?

I also like the image of Iran.

I like to simple composition. Thanks, Randy.

I actually like the composition how it is. The trees lead my eyes to the mountain. I don't see any of your images here though. I also don't see the CC request, though your post history is pretty much just that over the last year.

So why are all the other rules so ruthlessly enforced but not that one?

I like this a lot. It has an obvious fore, middle, and background, and I actually think that gives the mountains massive scale.

"I actually think that gives the mountains massive scale."

I think that if one wants to show scale he/she will place something that is familiar next to something else to show a difference. Or to put it another way, to show scale. I think that if one wanted to show the grandeur and size of a mountain one would place things that are smaller in the photo next to the mountain to emphasize scale rather than something that is larger in the photo. Otherwise the scale may seem off.

This is one of those rare photographs that are so pleasing that they should be enjoyed, not merely analyzed.
