I like the way the shape of the cloud mimics the shape of the sunlit part of the rock, and the sliver of sunlit clifftop in the background. I would enjoy spending some time looking at a print of this - I think it is a deeper image than it first appears.

What are the lines across the image? If you are working digitally, I'd take those out.

The lines are an issue with my scanner.....and me doing things when I'm tired and don't notice obvious issues.
I'm going to work with this some more, as I agree that there is a lot of depth worth investigating.

Wow, that's intense! What an awesome place! Good use of contrast, like this.

Thanks Stone, went out for a sunrise, got lucky with foggy weather. Its getting chilly here in florida ie in the 50-60s so we have a late fall effect with many of the trees. I was very surprised when I saw the image on the light table. I metered the highlight in the water for zone 7, placed the shadows in 3. The sky was metering Zone 10 and I thought that I would just sacrifice it for the rest of the scene, but it came out more pleasing than I thought. Velvia 100 has really surprised me with dynamic range on more than one occasion.
