i found this while reading the forums.
very nice rocks and clouds!
but the blues seems a little too bright to my personal liking.
overall very good

Nice image overall. The blues might be a bit too bright so maybe an adjustment of saturation is required. However, the image in itself is stunning and follows the ROTs down to the tee!

Marc, you have something here, something AWESOME...
Bump up the red 50% and turn it grayscale. Man It really looks nice.

The rocks look great - the color of the sky seems a bit off. The clouds look too blue.

Now that is an iconic shape - well done. You've overcooked the blue so that we can see it in the rock and ground

Good contrast, color, and composition. Utah is great!

It looks to me that the original picture was overexposed. There is definitely too much post-processing for me. Maybe the colour of the sky is too dramatic, and the colour of the rock lacks of contrast. 5

Vivid blue sky make this a very strong image with many shapes.....

You really know how to infuse the color that is the bluest blue I,ve ever seen. or it's just the fact that I haven't seen the sky here in Seattle for a few months. : )

Nice sharpness and composition. More brightness / white level might help reduce the feeling of the blue being overdone.

I'm feeling "blue" about you modifications to the hue and saturation (clouds and plants). Very clear shot however. Lots of detail in the rock formation.

This looks a little overprocessed to me. Nice choice of subject, though, and a good composition.

lot of blue in this one maybe correcting it with ps for the colors and hue.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

really like the colors here. did you use a polar filter? i think the sky is a hue to blue. maybe it should be a bit darker.

Simply stunning, amazing shot! 9 Good luck!

I don't like the toning of the sky in this one at all.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I have never seen clouds this color. I need white clouds during sunny times.

amazing color

The color in this picture is way off...I don't know if it's the wrong profile for web or if the saturation and hue have just been skewed. The sky and plants have this weird cast that looks very fake. Pretty aside from that though.

Way too much blue. The sky looks too unnatural.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

i like this but, i think the colors are hilighting the wrong thing. it seems the mountain should be brighter more colorful with nice reds and yellows and the blues and greens should be less touched.

Would be a 9 or 10 because the picture is awesome, but has a slight yellow tone I am not sure about... 8 for a STILL great photo
