nice shot of a guy on the cliff, but I don't sense any urgency of a SAR underway to find the missing.

Gorgeous photo. I'm not so sure about what looks like some vignette that that seems from the image away a little bit.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Holy Lord of the Rings, Batman! (Yeah I know half a world away, but still)...amazingly gorgeous shot, small wonder it got an HM. Amazing light, composition, dof, pov, incredible otherworldly landscape AND sunrise...how the h?@! am I supposed to pick that to pieces?! Love the flow from the right fg to the mid-ground and back to that lovely sunset...

And that's pretty much all I got, sorry! :-)

Feel free to PM me,

Susan

Awesome shot and post processing. A new fave!

edit to add: You didn't appear to have any problems with haze and the associated lack of contrast in the mid to distant hills as I did in my recent trip to New Zealand. Was there any haze or did you overcome it in post processing? It would be interesting to see one of the original images.
