The pictire is nice as such, but i feel the water body looks belittled in front of the forground rock. It that is what you want to convey then it is fine, but otherwise this kinda fails to portray the grandeur (please excure my spelling!)

Nice textures in the rock, and nice deep blue colours in the water.

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1113 images, I gave 92 of them an 8. Your image was one of those 92, placing you well within the top 10% for this challenge.

Is it the same location as the Horseshoe bend photos in the challenge from a different angle? Sure looks like it. I really like the alternative perspective, and the title says it all. Great depth of field, and the colours nice and rich. Good shot.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Cool shot, I love how smooth and reflective the water is.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/16/2009 06:50:16 PM
Almost looks like crude oil flowing around the bend.

Very nice sense of depth, I love the black cast to the water and how sharp this whole image is.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The rich colors and contrast are gorgeous!

 03/14/2009 02:15:04 AM

Nice textures and DOF. 7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 11:03:20 PM
Great title for this one because you've really captured the feeling of depth - super job!!!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 05:42:38 PM
Back to comment: A bit over processed for my taste. The brightness of the foreground takes away from the perception of depth. Or it could be that the contrast of the background isn't as wide as the foreground and therefore the background looks flat.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 03:38:31 PM
Great perspective and color.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 10:06:49 AM
The perspective really gives me a sense of falling. :~)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 08:59:57 AM
I've almost got vertigo looking at this :) Great detail and textures in the rocks leading to the soft calm water at the bottom
  Photographer found comment helpful.

You've really created the feeling of "a long way down." Nice reflection in the water.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 05:57:48 PM
great reflection in the water below, well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 04:36:25 PM
first thing I thought was 'depth' so great stuff.
second thing I thought was there's a really clear face in the top left corner
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 04:25:17 PM
An unusual take in the Horseshoe bend. Adding the foreground rocks really adds to the magesty.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 10:03:46 AM
a nice feeling of the steepness here, and I like the smooth reflection.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 04:08:49 AM
like the earthy colors
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 01:42:10 AM
Stunning shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 12:34:00 AM
not good for people who are afraid of heights :) great composition, and very nice shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 10:26:08 PM
Very interesting composition. I love the feel of height and distance. The processing is where I am torn - the effect is nice, but it does seem over sharpened or toned somehow.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 10:01:09 PM
Love the red rock and blue / black water - no real clues about how far away the water is, except the island looks like it is covered with mature trees.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 07:56:58 PM
Love the DOF here. Great capture of the texture of the rocks as well. Well exposed and interesting colors. The angle chosen definitely gives a feeling of depth. Good job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 05:59:34 PM
A unique angle here. Works well and love how you chose the water to be in the top left. Color is good and not over saturated.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 05:11:58 PM
or [perspective]
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 04:05:38 PM
There is a nice flow to this, nice use of leading lines..
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 02:11:06 PM
Great colours but its a little hard to work out what I'm looking at
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 11:06:05 AM
Wow. So much detail. Is this a composite of 2 photos with different focus regions? Great shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 10:12:30 AM
Yikes! My palms get sweaty just looking at this. Nicely processed, too.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 01:20:52 AM
I love the reflection in the water. Beautiful!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
