Nice composition, but the color filter, as well as the over use of levels? in the background distract IMO.

imo this looks over processed the distant hills look to sharp a bit of blur would have worked better

Fantastic view, fantastic picture. Where??

that's a lovely shot, but the colors look "off" to me. too much saturation, maybe? I'm not sure. I like the inclusion of the guy hiking; it gives the shot a grander feeling and a better idea of the massiveness of the scene

WOW, this is amazing in everyway. Great colors, ROT's is applied, and looks to be HDR? is it? You get a 1 from me

Pretty cool photo & the frame is ok. The first mountain in the distance is darker on top then lighter, not sure if it is supp to look that way but looks like it may have been missed in editing. 6

Wow, there are so many landscapes in this challenge it is hard to get something that jumps off the screen slaps you round the face and demands to be studied closely, but you have achieved it in spades here. Beautiful colours and the 'backdrop' mountains have a feel of being almost artifical (but in a very good way)

Excellent image

Breathtaking. this is an incredibely beautiful, colorful scene with tons of depth. the hiker almost takes away from it for me. my eye wants to keep looking at him/her as the focus of the photo especially with your title choice even though the star here is this environment. I just cant keep from looking at the hiker long enough to fully appreciate the beauty of the land. Still just incredible. I hope you do very well with this. 9

Very pretty. I love the depth of the photo.

very surreal treatment oin this photo - almost seems like a painting rather than a photo. I like the perspective and placement of the hiker. I also like the treatment of the sky to bring out the clouds ad the shadows in the mountains. Nicely done.
