D800e 14-24 f2.8. Used one image, didn't have to blend exposures as shadows weren't that badly blocked.

Is this in the Richtersveld, Vivaldo?
I like the composition and mood. Foreground and midground exposure seems natural for the time of day. The sky colour just seems a bit off, too cyan and not true blue? I think it's also lacking some midtone punch.
Let's see what others say.

PS: Nice to see you posting again, Vivaldo...hope to see some in Wildlife as well :5

Thanks Morkel :S3: I agree with you that on contrast. There is something missing, maybe not as sharp as it should be, especially in the FG:e3

Hi Vivaldo,



I agree with Morkel with the comp & mood, as well on the sky color. For me the clouds look a bit brown what I assume might be orange/red!
Overall I like the "set up"

Have a great weekend

Ciao
Anette

Hi Vivaldo - looks like a dramatic view, I agree that something looks off with the color of the sky, the contrast and the sharpening. I hope you'll rework it and post again.

TFS,
Rachel

I actually like the Processing, it looks like an old Kodachrome photo.
It appears plenty sharp to me.

Thanks everyone, always helps to get good feedback. Rachel will have another go and if I am successful will post it again.
