Congratulations on your top ten placing for your landscape that is assumed to meet the challenge.
Your lens has really emphasised the rocky foreground so that the unique nature of the rocks becomes a major part of the image. I like your use of the puddle to reflect the buildings too, it works well. The suns rays are also a nice element that adds to the overall result.
I know I am in a minority here but I am not keen on the HDR processing, I prefer a more natural looking exposure. I am pleased for you that it has been well received and has done so well especially given the competitive nature of the challenge, well done, Sid
My 4 yr. old grandson is standing over my shoulder while I vote. When I got to this pic he said "Whoa! This is going to suck up all the universe in the world!" HA!
Very amazing!!!
You and the other guy must of been out for the day together! Fantastic detail and composition. Congrats! I image you will be by each other on the front page in the final outcome!
I've seen this shot before from you and it certainly is a great location and nice how you always find a great angle.
That reflection in the little pool of water is very cool. Great job.
