Don't get the title, but it doesn't detract from the picture. bumping up.

I like the fact that you put in half sky and half rock. This is very dramatic. Most people would have put mostly sky in this.

I like the sky! Horizon needs straightening. All this imo, obviously. Good luck!

Wow! Great perspective and lovely tones. I love how earth and sky meet so dramatically!9

Wonderful tones and textures. I find the fact that the horizon is at the centre of the image a bit bothersome, though. Still, a very good image.

Could be my monitor but it seems a bit dark. Great photo though. You could probably do some neat things with the color version as well. Nice job.

Wonderful inky blacks...a classic B & W image for sure...nicely done.

Nice high contrast B&W work, altho perhaps slightly too far on the dark side. With a level horizon this would be even better in my opinion.

Great foreground detail.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I love this. The clouds, the detail in the rock, the b&w... The only flaw I see, and I think it may just be an illusion, is that it looks like it wants to be rotated couter-clockwise a touch.
