*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

A very appealing landscape that is a significant contribution to this open challenge.

Your image is all about light. By using this gorgeous soft morning light it has enabled you to bring out many important details that would be lost very soon after you took this. The receding hills add a lovely background to the foreground which has lovely shadows and lots of interest.

You have good DOF throughout thanks to the small aperture you have selected. Although I'm sure the ISO will not have any impact on your image in this situation I would have used the lowest ISO and a longer shutter speed with a tripod so, for example, ISO 100 which would have given you about 1/60s. I think I would have excluded the blown out sun completely, it doesn't have a major impact on the composition and is much more fitting with the lovely tones throughout the rest.

Apologies for the late critique, but as they say, better late than never. Thank you for your exquisite entry, its a shame you have become so inactive, I hope we see you back again very soon, Sid

A nice looking valley, and sure a dramatic atmosphere at time of shot.
