I think it's pretty scene over-all. The dark shadows on the rocks are like magnets for my eyes, I find them distracting. I would be interested to see the scene reframes by taking a few steps forward and to the right. The cloud creating a false peaks in the mountains are frustrating to me. Otherwise, I'd like to see more texture in the trees and more contrast in the image over-all.

Awesome thank you very much. Landscapes are not strong nor prevalent in my archive I usually concentrate on critters and botany. But I do always step back and take it all in and always document a Ramsar Site with landscape photos which is a must in my books 😃 I am here to learn from your great adventures and captures.

Wonderful! It is true that the shadow on the rocks in the foreground are a bit of a distraction, but otherwise this composition is remarkable.
