hi stephen
really enjoy your image. it shows magical quality of the american west but i am having
trouble with the mid tones ( maybe it is my computer? i don't know )
it looks like a dark band from just below the horizon line across to the left along the rocks
maybe it is a cloud shadow ? i'm drawn to the brighter tones - the clouds ( look fine by me not fake )
the river, the sun on the stone and how the sun and river drag me to the open vista..
but ...
the lower part of the rocks, while there is some information there ...
i get lost trying to see too much get bogged down in the details.
im not so much of a details kind of person hints at the details on the rocks
are fine by me ( i think the artsy word is they are implied )
im kind of a mies van der rohe kind of person
( less is more ) i tend to get overwhelmed by too many details ..
... sorry to ask this
aside from a pretty photograph ( which it is ) what is your intent? did you have design sort of thing in mind?
i find it hard to concentrate on other aspects of the photograph when there is a lot of detail and "stuff" ...
if you don't get there often, i hope you made more exposures, looks like a really nice spot to visit !
