Sublime location - makes me want to explore the rest of the frame... Can't help but wonder if a higher vantage point would have given a better view of the river snaking off into the distance, adding to the leading lines element that is hinted at with this composition. Color is a bit over-saturated at first, but that feeling fades as you sit with for a bit. -- 7 --

this is beautiful. i just hope you had to hike to get it, as opposed to shooting from a bridge...meaning, i prefer images that require more effort than just showing up ;-)

Lots of classic blue/orange combos in this challenge. This is a nice scene. The colors may be pushed a tiny bit too far. I think I see some pixellation showing up, especially on the left among the large bushes. Great clouds in the shot. 7

A bit too much "color" for my taste.

Beautiful scene, but oversaturated and overprocessed.
