I'm not sure whether this looks more like a celebration or someone wallowing in self pity... :)

Wow...the lighting at that time of day was just spectacular for this shot. Amazing how one spot that's really a fairly average view can just come to life under the right circumstances...and you did a perfect job catching that moment.

Very cool. I've never seen them at sunrise, but I like this effect.

Comment by JunieMoon:
This is such a strong composition. The tree seems to almost dwarf the cliffs because of the angle. Your blue sky is really saturated. Did you use a polarizer on the desert shots? Anyway, I think this was your best shot of all of them. Keep um coming. I don't get to see the desert sw at all, living in foggy and misty New England.

great subject, but the right side is too dark and lacks detail

very Ansel ... the image is stunning. Only criticism: composition is a 6 in my opinion and I get sorta lost in the midtones. score: 7
