very nice use of depth of field - the clouds look like I could pull them out of the sky.

I just can't get enough of the colors you have here. Terrific billowy clouds. Nice from ground level. This would make a terrific print with a big white border matte. Great depth; this could also work well was a panorama.

I feel framing could have been better here.

Well, I had to return to the rules for this shot, it actually said 'from the ground up' and muppet here misread as 'from the ground looking up'. This is looking across but yes, meets the challenge. Nice BIG sky and IMHO the inclusion of foreground grass sets this shot off well :)

I'd love to see a tad more foreground. Lovely perspective and the sky is gorgeous. 7

I'm trying to figure out how the sky could have equal brightness on either side and very dark in the middle. It doesn't matter...I love New Mexico and your photo is certainly pretty.

Excellent picture. Love the colors and the large amount of sky really works for this challenge and what a beautiful sky it was too.

Distance and width come to mind. It looks like a healthy place to be. I stop and think when looking at this one. 7.
