Nice colors, dramatic shadowing, wish there was a little more details in the shadows. The noise in the blue sky is distracting, don't get me wrong, I'm NOT a NI freak, I actually like noise but there is something uneven about this noise.

Shadows are too dark and the sky is posterized. (Granted, the harsh lighting makes this a very tricky photo to make!)

The place looks beautiful. The dark shadows take away from the beauty and the sky seems a bit grainy.

the sky looks very odd here. over saturated or noisy or something. interesting lighting though.

I love Utah but I don't remember the sky looking like that. It's a nice snap-shot that could have been cleaned up better.

The sky looks very bad. The interesting parts are very dark and there isn't really that much to creat interest in.

With a bit more post-processing, this could be a great landscape shot.
More details brought out of the shadows, a little less contrast and less noise in the sky would have helped this a lot.

Nice composition but too much noise and it lacks critical focus.
