Composition, focus and PP are nicely done. The lighting is really tough and it would have been nearly impossible not to have areas of blown highlight outside the path.

I could quickly tell this would be at the top of my 4.5-5.5 scale. I think the biggest issue simple pertains to what enough people considered "desolate". Perhaps the "nice warmth" you added with the duotone worked against you in this regard. I don't think it was a biggie though, but I'm not looking for "nice" in desolate...

I'm kind of sick of waterfalls, but this is very lovely. The glistening rocks really make it for me.

comment from my 1-4-0 thread...

I wish there were some fotog comments/settings on this image and judging by one of the earlier comments its a rework but could not find the orig in your landscape folder. The colours are almost velvia like and the inclusion of decent fg interest adds depth to this shot. I really can't see anything wrong with this so spent some time studying it to come up with three niggles ;) Maybe the trees on the hill could be a little sharper? and if the lone wisp of cloud could be dodged slightly to increase its prominence it would help the image, now, if you could have chopped down the tree in front of the house it would look even better lol.
