Very pretty. i have a big issue with your placement of that wood in the foreground, and your cropping of the shaped sand around it that would really draw the eye is only you'd ncluded enough of it. Surely just crouching down would have enabled you to place that part of your composition more closely to the background, and to thus give some sense of continuity to the scene rather than this dissociation - an effect only enhanced by the very weird light around the wood.

The reason that very low placemtn is a problem is one not often understood, I think: and not as simple as a 'rule of thirds' thing, but more to do with how easily your viewer's eye will wander out of fframe if you give it half a chance - and that placement is just the half-chance needed.

Tooo much noise. Would have done well in B&W for the Adams challenge.

amazing capture especially were the orange meets the blue.... the branch in the foreground is kinda wierdly edited, there is a part that almost has a yellow and purplish hue to it. but anyways when i cover the bottom half of the image its a perfect shot imo. 9

This is great, the contrast in colors between the foreground and blue mountains and the detail are wonderful.
