Chilo Gorge
Probably one of Southern Africa's more famous cliffs. This is taken in Gonarazhou National Park, Zimbabwe, 9th June 2009.
This was about the only time sun came out while we camped on the opposite bank, nothing beats tents when it is raining

It really is this red
Wonderful cliff formation, Ken, like the the warm colors, and the bands with greenery compliment them well. The puffy clouds are a nice touch to composition.
Very much reminds me of the southwest in the US Ken.
Compositionally, I would suggest cropping at the right to make the rock face continuous from edge to edge. I feel this strengthens the image's impact by not interrupting the monolithic look of the rock face with the drop off on the right.
Agree with Robert comments; I would also remove the dark spot at the bottom edge near the RHC.

"Nature Interpreted" - Photography begins with your mind and eyes, and ends with an image representing your vision and your reality of the captured scene; photography exceeds the camera sensor's limitations. Capturing and Processing landscapes and seascapes allows me to express my vision and reality of Nature.
Ken - I agree with all of the above. Nicely done.
