Hello Decio

This is a lovely scene but I think your colours are a little bit too strong on the top half of the image... I can also see a blue cast on the mountains and the snow is not as white as I might have thought. Did you use a blue graduated filter here to enhance the sky?? I would consider making the forest (lower LH side) a little lighter to bring up the detail and hence provide more interest. I also do not think that you needed F22 and that the image quality would improve with an F stop of around 12 to 16.

thank you for showing

DON

Decio,

Welcome to the forum.

I would agree with Don, the the colors seem somewhat off. Cyan/blue are much too dominate in the image. I also took a look at it and you have strong clipping in the shadows and highlights. I recommend reprocessing if a RAW image to correct these issues. If a JPG, it might be hard to correct this satisfactory.

Compositionally, I like the flow in the image. High mountain on left diagonally flowing to the lower peak on right.

The valley and tree line act as a leading line into the image.
