This shot could have benefited from being sent through NeatImage. Also, the contrast seems to have been pushed a tad too much. I would have prefrerred seeing less dried grass in the foreground. Awesome cloudscape.

what about Coors? The sky looks like something is wrong. This is also a very tough picture to properly expose with the extreme white and extreme dark sections in the same photo. Its a little soft, there is a little problem with a landscape shot like this in this format, we just aren't getting the full effect.

I had several ideas like this - the one thing is visual (the mountains), the other is implied or conceptual (Colorado). In the end I didn't pursue it because to pull it off, both "things" I think really need to have impact in the shot - here, Colorado doesn't. Nice mountain shot though.

nice background and forground - but the middle is lacking a bit of detail.

Truly, you met the Challenge perfectly (and by using 3rds too). Hope you didn't get frostbite getting the image!

The stretch to the challenge is a bit tenuous. However, this shot has nice composition and interesting elements. The dark foreground is a bit off-putting, though. 5
