Looks like you had a wonderful hiking trip. That looks like a beautiful place to visit. Love the black and white contrasts of this shot. I also find it cool that you caught a reflection of the rocks in the water.
Very neat high contrast shot. The leading lines are fantastic. The only thing I would change would be to clone out the shadow of the person. Great Job.
Interesting idea having all that muck in the foreground. I probably would have moved forward more to avoid the muck, and then would have only had an ordinary pretty picture. What a good eye you have. The B&W is very nice.
None of these shots sucks. Not a one. It's a delight to see what you come up with for challenges, and just in general. Glad to see you had fun with the wide angle. What I like about the challenge entry in particular are the strong foreground lines. Gives it power somehow. And I quite like the shadow of the person, too.
Nice shot - Like the tones - Lovely composition - Wonderful sharpness - Wish the shadow was a little more recognizable as it gets a little lost into the ridges
