Beautiful scene with well chosen vantage point and subject. Without those human reference points the scale of this would have been largely lost. The light is almost perfect, but lacks defintion on the nearest portion of foreground. Horizon is lightly skewed, but the 'Adams factor' is relatively strong, despite some over-weighting of dark areas on the left of shot.

Super vantage point but the foreground needs more variation in tonal range (lighter patches/darker patches).

Very nice indeed. The cloud cover is nice with lots of light and dark areas. The contrast on the mountain works well with the dark valley below. nice - 8

Dark sky gives to this picture a misterious halo. Great composition, and title that makes us wonder ... Did they reach the top?.
Only thing I don't like about this picture is the white border ... picture would have been a 10 without it. (9)

Another where's waldo entry? Great shot of a dramatic scene. But it feels like a few more moments and that large central cloud might roll out of scene and improve the light immesurably. 8
