Love the scene, the textures within the rocks, and how they lead me up to the building. The sky is very dramatic. I would be tempted to do some burn and dodge to see what plays out as far as creating a stormier look. It is nice as is also though.

Oh I like this very much. It is a traditionally zen image and something seen rather often but your lighting really brings something new to the balanced pile of rocks idea. The light and shadow play is excellent, gives me a thought about light and dark, good and evil and how they balance each other out. I think the focus is great and the composition is excellent. There is a simple elegance to this image that really draws me in and I absolutely find it still, harmonious and calming. To me this doesn't just depict an idea associated with zen, but it truly has a zen feeling to it as well and I've found only a few photos in this challenge that allowed me to get an inner connection to zen through them. Well done. I gave an 9 and updated to add a favorite.
