it's a nice shot, but where is the dramatic effect?

This seems washed out. I wonder whether a high-contrast B&W conversion would put the emphasis more on the interesting shapes.

The turquoise shirt is too eye-catching and detracts from the scenery.

Very magical landscape. The texture is so alien. Gets one of my two 9s.

Excellent earthy natural weathered spots here.

very interesting. IMO --> cropping out approx. top 1/3 to eliminate the bright right upper corner would have greatly improved this picture and kicked it up a couple points.

There's a great shot in here. The bit in the center front, cropped tight, would have been outstanding. In fact, almost anything in near frame would make an outstanding shot. A common mistake is to try to include too much and this is a classic example. I'd LOVE to see you shoot this again but explore the near field objects. Zoom in tight on some of the interesting elements. I think You'd have several outstanding images.
