Great choice of subject for this challenge, and nicely framed. You've done a lovely job of bringing out the full tonal range, and the effect is striking. As some voters suggested, you might have toned it down a bit, but that's largely a matter of taste.
In the realm of constructive criticism, I have a couple of things to offer perhaps for next time:
- The focus looks a little soft. I don't know if this was intentional, but I see that "Sharpen" is in your PP notes. Do you ever use Unsharp Mask? I find it does a much better job about 99% of the time. Try a radius of .3 to .5 pixels with a threshold of 0.
- The white lines on the cinema-style border are a bit bright. A more neutral gray would have had the same effect without drawing the eye out of the frame.
A solid entry in a difficult challenge! Looking forward to seeing more landscapes from you. |

| Interesting texture in the mountain. I'm not crazy about the shrubbery on the right or the heavy horizontal border. It makes me feel as if I'm peering through a slit. |

| Knowing the voters, I'm sure you're getting pinged for the shrubs, but I like both the framing, scale, and perspective they give. A lovely image!......7 |

| The contrast is a bit too strong for my tastes but still like your picture. I bet it's beautiful and peaceful. |
