Hi Norman,
I'm bouncing around with this one. while I like the colors and silhouette composition, the left brush and cactus.....feel a little out of place. My eye is drawn to the area that I cropped own to. I don't know if you were able to move in a little as you were already at 350..........maybe the 1.4 would have gotten you there??? As you have presented, I think a pano crop off the top with a little room (1/2" on monitor) above left cactus would be preferable.

Norman,

I have to go with Roman's crop here. What I like about the image is the sun, the peak below it and the cactus close by.

The one on the left with a tree in front of it distracts. If is was just the cactus or just the tree on the left, it would balance the image and both being merged draws too much attention IMO. On the right, the cactus is too close to the edge.
